Processing Unit with a Plurality of Shader Engines

摘要

A processor includes a first shader engine and a second shader engine. The first shader engine is configured to process pixel shaders for a first subset of pixels to be displayed on a display device. The second shader engine is configured to process pixel shaders for a second subset of pixels to be displayed on the display device. Both the first and second shader engines are also configured to process general-compute shaders and non-pixel graphics shaders. The processor may also include a level-one (L1) data cache, coupled to and positioned between the first and second shader engines.
