ShaderX 5!!!!
Yes, they published the ShaderX 5, as a Christmas surprise@_@?? Wow, seems we can get a new ShaderX ( also cost me so much money +_+.....$$!!!) every year. In this version, you can even find GPU programming chapters on mobile phones, OMG, what a revolution!!! Still reading the 3th and 4th ones, am i a little drop behind -_-b ??
