Memory Issues: Density
Lots of Pixels => Lots of Memory
- 1280 x 1024 x 32 bits/pixel => 5.1Mb
Double Buffering => Double Memory
- Two frames of above => 10.2Mb
Storage needed for things other than pixels, e.g. textures
Voodoo2 card has 12Mb (high-end gaming)
Intergraph Realizm 3D has up to 32 Mb
- 100 bits per pixel with 2.5 Million pixels (1824 x 1368)
