Why would that be relevant? this isn't rasterization.

- kimixa 2y agoThey might be, depending on architecture - the ROPs are responsible for taking the output from the shader core and writing it back to memory, so can be used in compute shaders even if all the fancier "Raster Operation" modes aren't really used there. No point having a second write pipeline to memory when there's already one there. But if your usecase doesn't really pressure that side of things then even if some are "missing" it might make zero difference, and my understanding of most ML models is they're heavily read bandwidth biased.
