               R G B A Depth Stencil
               --------------------------------
Nvidia: 8 8 8 8 24 8

Octane 8 8 8 8 24 8
              12 12 12 0 24 8

Octane2 V8: 8 8 8 8 24 8
              10 10 10 2 24 8
              12 12 12 0 24 8

              I think Octane V10,V12 can get 12 bit RGBA w-th depth/alpha
        
IR: 12 12 12 12 23 8
              16 0 0 16 23 8 (greyscale visual)
