Abstract: An embodiment of a conditional shader apparatus may include a conditional pixel shader to determine if one or more pixels meet a shader condition, and a pixel regrouper communicatively coupled to the conditional pixel shader to regroup pixels based on whether the one or more pixels are determined to meet the shader condition. Another embodiment of a conditional shader apparatus may include a thread analyzer to determine if a set of threads meet a thread condition, and a conditional kernel loader communicatively coupled to the thread analyzer to load an appropriate kernel from a set of two or more kernels based on whether the set of threads are determined to meet the thread condition. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
