A device has a processor for processing a vertex processing stage, a sub-screen dividing stage and a pixel rendering stage of a three-dimensional (3D) graphics pipeline. The processor includes processing threads which balance the work load of the 3D graphics pipeline by prioritizing processing for the pixel rendering stage over other stages. Each processing thread, operating in parallel and independently, checks a level of tasks in a Task list of sub-screen tasks. If the level is below a threshold value, empty or the sub-screen tasks are all locked, the processing thread loops to the vertex processing stage. Otherwise, the processing thread processes a sub-screen task during the pixel rendering stage.
