    BANK SWITCHED DISPLAY MEMORY

    [ TDx_Draw_Library ]     [ next: Bit Depth ]     [ prev: Attached ]

    Bank switching is a method old computer systems use to work around limitations in video memory access. This method involved accessing blocks, or banks, of video memory, switching between banks allowed the video hardware to retain larger, higher resolution or multiple images. Generally, if a surface falls across two different banks it means accessing the surface will involve constantly switching between those banks, thus incurring a considerable performance penalty.
