Beyond3D Unscheduled maintenance - May 10th 2013 @ 23.40 BST

Apologies for the unscheduled maintenance. While working on some bits and pieces on the server I noticed a misconfiguration in the sshd, so I fixed that and bounced the VMs quickly.

Should all be...

Adreno has had dedicated memory since the beginning (usually referenced as GMEM), so that's not a new development for 330.

It's no problem at all, and given Samsung have chosen to do so then I'd go with that in your kernel too.

Performance at a given Hydra clock, much like a given GPU clock, will depend on rendering load and memory access.

I should mention that it does depend on its connection to the outside world, number of SGX cores and some other things. Hydra clock could be higher than SGX clock as well. It's independent for a...

Hydra clock should be quite a bit lower than the SGX clock, especially in 5410's config where the SGX clock is high. In the 200MHz ballpark is normal, and it's a good idea for SGX 5XT multicore...

Hydra's a GPU block in multicore SGX configurations. It does a bunch of different things, but primarily it's there to help make the multiple cores appear as one to the rest of the system while still...

I can't really explain that. At a big guess, it looks like something's gone wrong either in the app's timing code (unlikely) or possibly the GPU is operating at a low performance level via DVFS for...

The device you're using to write a post should have no bearing on the quality of your discourse, zed. You should just make the effort.

I think it's most correct to say that we don't mind use of discard where it makes sense. Yes it causes some extra work for the hardware but it should have considered use by the developer. It doesn't...

What stops the Exynos working with both variant's radio hardware? Shouldn't it be possible to ship the Exynos everywhere and just change the baseband and modem?

I'm still a bit confused, because 9_1 is still (unless I'm mistaken) ps_2_0 and thus 24-bit. Time to write some shaders I think.

In that case I would love to know how it runs Windows 8 RT, since that mandates ps_2_0, which in turn requires 24-bit.
