I am getting all up into the product specs of specific graphic products but found I term I have no idea about. It's the term clipping. There are clipping methods like vertex clipping, but.. what does texture clipping mean by itself?
Thanks!

Clipping means that the card doesn't render certain aspects of a frame that isn't needed. Texture clipping should be the removal of texture information that is not directly relevant to the final rendered frame image. This technique can be used to cut fill rate usage per frame, thus increasing your frame per second rate.

Hope this helps,
