Abstract
A method of processing a graphics pipeline in a graphics processing apparatus includes performing pixel shading to process pixels corresponding to an object, texturing the object, and transmitting data of a textured object to a processing path for a post-processing operation of the textured object. A graphics processing apparatus for processing a graphics pipeline includes a shading processor configured to perform pixel shading to process pixels corresponding to an object. A texturing processor is configured apply to texture the object, determine a post-processing operation mode to adjust visual effects of the textured object, and transmit data of the textured object to a processing path for the post-processing operation in accordance with the determined post-processing mode. A reorder buffer is configured to buffer data of the object in accordance with a processing order when the processing path bypasses the shading processor.
