Hello

Either you can use the programmable pipeline when it's available and use the fixed pipeline as a fallback but it means that you add a constraint into the design of your engine or you can use only one specific pipeline depending on which hardware you target. The performance difference depends on what you do with textures and some aspects haven't changed. Please be more accurate.
