> The Architect of the Xenos is ATI's Michael Dogett
>
> - Features of System Architecture is New Rendering Performance and new
> GPU Architecture
>
> - The Features are Unified Shader, Memory Export, Texture/Vertex Fetch,

>
> - Features of the Daughter die (EDRAM) is Spix/Clix, 4xMSAA, Stencil

> that means 4 Samples Z Lossless Compression and 2) Alpha and Z Logic to
> EDRAM interface: 256 GB/second, 32 Samples x 32 Bit color, 24 Bit Z and
> 8 bit stencil as well as Double Z which means 64 Samples x 24 bit z and
> 8 bit Stencil.

> - Unified Shader means: A revolutionary Step in Graphics hardware, one
> Hardware design which performs both Vertex and Pixels and has Vertex
> Processing Power. Previous design was First Vertex was processed, then
> Pixels were Processed, Now both will be Processed at the same time thus
> increasing efficiency. It has GPU based vertex and pixel load balancing
> which means between vertex and pixel resource usage. It is Based on
> Directx 9, Shader Model 3.0+ .
>
> - Memory Export means: Shader Output to computed address, Virtualise
> Shader Process by Multipass, Shader Debug and Scatter write. The Memory
> Export is from the GPU to the Unified 512 MB GDDR3 Ram. Randomly update
> data structures from Vertex or Pixel Shader which means Ray tracing
> acceleration structures, Physical simulation - GPGPU and Enabling
> exploration for the future
