Radeon HD 7540D IGP 

Pascal will be more than 2x more performance per watt efficient than Maxwell, even without the three new features listed above.

Most of the detail was around Pascal, due in 2016, that will introduce three new features including mixed compute precision, 3D (stacked) memory, and NVLink.

For most rendering tasks unordered rasterization is fine (deeper elements would be occluded anyhow), but for a certain category of tasks having the ability to efficiently control the access order to a UAV is important to correctly render a scene quickly.

VTRs are primarily meant to be used with volumetric pixels (voxels), with the idea being that with sparse allocation, volume tiles that do not contain any useful information can avoid being allocated, avoiding tying up memory in tiles that will never be used or accessed.

Finally, in the power efficiency focused fixed frame rate mode, switching between Direct3D 11 and 12 slightly reduces GPU power consumption but dramatically reduces CPU power consumption, all while maintaining the same 19fps frame rate.

With that subject in mind, Intel is doing just that this week at SIGGRAPH 2014, where the company is showcasing both the performance and efficiency gains from Direct3D 12 on their hardware.

Club 3D had a good run with the successful Multi Stream Transport MST HUB that was launched in 2013 and today they are expanding this Ultra AV and Cable line with the world’s first Y-Cabled Docking Station.

The connected monitor can be configured to either mirror your primary screen or extend the Windows desktop.
