Abstract

A graphics processor performs graphics processing in respect of a region of a render output. The graphics processing comprises obtaining a scaling factor corresponding to a desired resolution for the region. The graphics processing further comprises, in accordance with the desired resolution, obtaining scaled graphics geometry to be rendered for the region and selecting a subregion of the region to be rendered in respect of the region. The selected subregion is then rendered using the scaled graphics geometry, thereby providing a subregion of data elements rendered in accordance with the desired resolution. The graphics processor can provide efficient and flexible graphics processing when performing variable resolution rendering.
