This presentation by one of our engineers, Lou Kramer, at GIC 2020 provides an introduction to the graphics pipeline. It covers an overview of the graphics pipeline, draw call life, and compute dispatches. It is aimed at programmers competent with CPUs, but without experience with graphics.
Lou also talks about the GPU hardware (based on the RDNA architecture) and how it maps to the logical GPU pipelines. This will be used to explain basic programming principles to write efficient code for the GPU. She also explains a bit about the interaction between CPU and GPU.
We have many more videos and presentations for you to explore.
Join AMD on an adventure thru “Zen 2” and “Zen 3” processors which power today’s game consoles and PCs. Dive into instruction sets, cache hierarchies, resource sharing, and simultaneous multi-threading. Journey across the sands of silicon to master microarchitecture and uncover best practices!
This presentation will explain how the AMD FidelityFX Denoiser allows for high-quality raytracing results without increasing rays per pixel, and deep dives into specific AMD RDNA™ 2-based optimizations that benefit both Xbox Series X|S and PC.
RGP 1.9 and 1.10 introduce support for AMD Radeon™ RX6000 series GPUs, a new memory cache counter feature, and support for DirectX® and Vulkan® ray tracing.
Words not enough? How about pictures? How about moving pictures? We have some amazing videos to share with you!
