Abstract

Apparatus and method for a multi-frequency vertex shader. For example, one embodiment of a graphics processing apparatus comprises a plurality of vertex caches to store vertex data associated with graphics primitives; and graphics execution circuitry to execute vertex shaders operable at different processing rates for different sets of the vertex data, each of the different sets of vertex data to having a different type of identifier associated therewith to identify the vertex data.
