ABSTRACT:
A graphics memory includes a plurality of memory partitions. A memory controller organizes tile data into subpackets that are assigned to subpartitions to improve memory transfer efficiency. Subpackets of different tiles may be further assigned to subpartitions in an interleaved fashion to improve memory operations such as fast clear and compression.
