Ah, the days of needing a 3D GPU and a 2D GPU...

[โ€“] Aux@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

I find it really interesting that modern 3D pipelines are so efficient that drawing 2D using 3D part of GPU is faster and better than using 2D part of GPU still present in modern GPUs for backwards compatibility. Maybe 2D is now done in software in drivers though, I'm not sure, haven't checked.
