Hey thanks for the very useful reply. Now that you mention, could you point to any reading resource for getting into the nitty gritty of the fixed hardware part of the GPU? From my interactions with some folks, I'm under the impression that this stuff is kept proprietary and both nVidia and AMD don't reveal the details. I'm just wondering if there are some general principles related to the fixed hardware aspect of the graphics pipeline of a GPU, that are compiled in a text or review paper or something. Thanks in advance.
