표면 아래의 이야기.

GeForce 256 integrated hardware transform and lighting into the graphics processor. Geometry transformation and lighting calculations could therefore be handled within the graphics pipeline instead of relying entirely on the host CPU.

CURATOR INTERPRETATIONMoving a stage of graphics work changes the division of labor between CPU and GPU. Its fixed-function capability should not be compared to modern programmable shader throughput as if the operations were interchangeable.
