Shader Model 5.0
Shader Model 5.0 adds support for indexed temporaries which can be very useful for certain tasks direct temporary access is preferable is most cases. One reason is that indexed temporaries are hard to optimize. The shader optimizer may not be able to identify optimizations across indexed accesses that could otherwise have been detected. Furthermore, indexed temporaries tend to increase register pressure a lot. An ordinary shader that contains for example, a few dozen variables will seldom consume a dozen time in the final, but is likely to be optimized to a handful depending on what the shader does. This is because the shader optimizer can easily track all variables and reuse registers. This is typically not possible for indexed temporaries, thus the register pressure of the shader may increase dramatically. This could be detrimental to performance as it reduces the hardwares ability to hide latencies.
Microsoft ® DirectX ® 11 and OpenGL ® 4.1 Optimizations
The power of DirectX ® 11 with awesome performance, stunning visual effects and more dynamic interactivity than ever, the best performance and application compatibility for all DirectX ® 11 applications. Microsoft ® DirectX ® 11 games with stunning 3D graphics and shading effects. Ensure top-notch compatibility and performance for all OpenGL 4.1 applications.
CrossFireX ™ and PCI-E 2.1
Upgrade to even greater 3D performance quickly and easily thanks to plug-and-play ATI CrossFireX multi-GPU. PCI Express ® 2.1-Now you are ready for the most demanding graphics applications thanks to PCI Express ® 2.1 support, which allows up to twice the throughput of current PCI Express ® cards. Doubles the bus standards bandwidth from 2.5 Gbit / s (PCIe 1.1) to 5 Gbit / sec.
HDCP Support and Ready to HDMI
High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) is a form of copy protection technology designed to prevent transmission of non-encrypted high definition content as it travels across DVI or HDMI digital connections. High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is a new interface standard for consumer electronics devices that combines HDCP-protected digital video and audio in a single consumer connector.
