         2 . An apparatus comprising:
 a power source; and   a graphics processing unit coupled to the power source, the graphics processing unit to:
 assign a first rate to a first region of a frame; and 
 assign a second rate to a second region of the frame, wherein the second rate indicates a greater number of pixels to share a pixel shader result than the first rate, wherein the first rate and the second rate are selected in response to identified motion, wherein the identified motion is based on temporal anti-aliasing data, and wherein the second region corresponds to higher motion content than the first region based on the identified motion from the temporal anti-aliasing data. 
   
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein the graphics processing unit is further to:
 assign a third rate to a third region of the frame, wherein the third rate indicates a greater number of pixels to share a pixel shader result than the second rate, and wherein the third rate is associated with temporal anti-aliasing data.   
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 3 , wherein the third corresponds to higher motion content than the second region. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein a number of samples for anti-aliasing are assigned to each of the first and second regions of the frame based on an associated relative motion value. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 5 , wherein the associated relative motion value is assigned on a per-pixel basis. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 5 , wherein the associated relative motion value is based on a comparison corresponding to a difference in pixel values data between the first frame and a subsequent frame as well as being based on the temporal anti-aliasing data of the subsequent frame. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein a number of samples for anti-aliasing are assigned to each of the first and second regions of the frame based on an actual complexity of a scene as determined from a prior frame. 
     
     
         9 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein a number of samples for anti-aliasing are assigned to each of the first and second regions of the frame based on changes in a scene as compared with a prior frame and based on one or more detected static regions as compared with the prior frame. 
     
     
         10 . An electronic processing system, comprising:
 an application processor; and   a graphics subsystem communicatively coupled to the application processor, the graphics subsystem to:
 assign a first rate to a first region of a frame; and 
 assign a second rate to a second region of the frame, wherein the second rate indicates a greater number of pixels to share a pixel shader result than the first rate, wherein the first rate and the second rate are selected in response to identified motion, wherein the identified motion is based on temporal anti-aliasing data, and wherein the second region corresponds to higher motion content than the first region based on the identified motion from the temporal anti-aliasing data.

 assign a third rate to a third region of the frame, wherein the third rate indicates a greater number of pixels to share a pixel shader result than the second rate, and wherein the third rate is associated with temporal anti-aliasing data.   
     
     
         12 . The system of  claim 11 , wherein the third corresponds to higher motion content than the second region. 
     
     
         13 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein a number of samples for anti-aliasing are assigned to each of the first and second regions of the frame based on an associated relative motion value. 
     
     
         14 . The system of  claim 13 , wherein the associated relative motion value is assigned on a per-pixel basis. 
     
     
         15 .
