HyperMemory: Next-Generation Memory Management for PCI Express Graphics

Tags:
bandwidth issues

Overview The availability of significant amounts of high-bandwidth memory is a key component of an efficient, high-performance graphics subsystem. For this reason, high-end graphics subsystems in modern enthusiast and workstation configurations are often seen with: 256 Megabytes of Double Data Rate memory operating on a 256-bit wide memory interface. While such configurations do allow for high performance by allowing a matched VPU core to always have ready access to a significant pool of working memory to 'Feed' it, these configurations also come at significant cost.
