Claim 4:
5. The method of claim 1, further comprising:
analysing, for each fetched control stream with at least one primitive block entry, the primitive block entries in that control stream one at a time to determine whether the corresponding primitive block is relevant to rendering the current tile until (i) a primitive block relevant to rendering the current tile is identified or (ii) it is determined that none of the primitive block entries of that control stream are relevant to rendering the current tile;
for each primitive block determined to be relevant to rendering the current tile, adding information identifying that primitive block to a list of relevant primitive blocks; and
selecting a primitive block from the list of relevant primitive blocks associated with the earliest primitives in a draw order to be processed next and removing the selected primitive block from the list of relevant primitive blocks.
