Abstract

When processing graphics primitives in a graphics processing system, the render output is divided into a plurality of regions for rendering, each region comprising a respective area of the render output. It is determined for which of the plurality of regions of the render output a primitive should be rendered for. For each region of the render output it is determined a primitive should be rendered for, geometry data for the primitive is stored in memory in a respective data structure for the region in a compressed form, such that the geometry data for the primitive to be rendered is stored in a compressed form, in a respective, different data structure for each different region of the render output it is determined the primitive should be rendered for.
