Radeon X1050 

Drivers would play around with queuing them and manipulating them, to optimize how these orders are sent to the graphics device, but the game developer had no control over that.

Pretty much all of them apply equally, regardless of graphics vendor, but there are a few NVIDIA-specific comments, particularly the ones about NvAPI at the end and a few labeled notes in the “Root Signatures” category.

When it comes to the GPU-based head tracking, AMD is using its GCN architecture to "ensure [the] most up-to-date head tracking inputs are used for VR rendering and image/time warp.

AMD was quick to point out that its GCN architecture, which is found in everything from tablets right up to the latest and greatest gaming PCs, is ready for DirectX 12.

This means that you can make legitimately free (no price, no ads, no subscription, no microtransactions, no Skylander figurines, etc.) game in UE4 for free now!

NVIDIA and Epic Games have just announced that Unreal Engine 4 developers can view and modify the source of PhysX.

As one would reasonably expect, with their desktop processors configured for very high CPU performance and much more limited GPU performance, Intel is the least CPU bottlenecked in the first place.

As long-time readers may recall from our look at Intel’s Gen 7.5 GPU architecture, Intel scales up from GT1 through GT3 by both duplicating the EU/texture unit blocks (the subslice) and the ROP/L3 blocks (the slice common).
