B. T. (U. S . A. ) Address: 17358 Railroad S treet City of Industry, CA 91 748 Phone/Fax No: (818) 854-9338/ (818) 854-9339 hereby declares that the product Product Name: 3D Graphics Accelerator Model Number: GV-R96S128D Conforms to the follo wing specifications: FCC Part 15, Sub part B, Sectio n 15. 107(a) an d Section 15. 109 (a), Class B Digital Device Supplementary Information: This device co mplies with part 15 of the FCC Rules . Operation is subject to t he follo wing two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful and (2) this device must accept any inference received, including that may cause undesired operation. [. . . ] Using VPU Recover the display driver will, in most cases, be able to reset the graphics accelerator without requiring a system restart. 3D Properties: The Direct 3D properties page allows you to adjust the Direct 3D settings. n Main Settings slider Moving the slider to the left will maximize application performance, while moving the slider to the right will provide excellent 3D image quality. Moving this slider from one position to the next changes the individual Custom Settings sliders found below. GV-R96S128D Graphics Accelerator - 22 - l Custom Settings checkbox When Custom Settings is checked, the Main Settings slider is disabled, allowing you to move each individual slider in the Custom Settings section below. Setting the individual sliders gives you complete con trol over your application experience. Using Custom Settings is recommended for advanced users only. English n SMOOTHVISION 2. 1 l Anti-Aliasing checkbox improves image quality by removing jagged edges from 3D images, resulting in smoother, more naturallooking objects. Selecting Application Preference willresult in high quality images, with negligible reduction in the application's performance. l Anti-Aliasing slider can be applied using different sample patterns and sample points such as 2X, 4X, or 6X. Moving this slider to the right increases sampling to provide the most realistic 3D image. l Anisotropic Filtering checkbox uses a texture filtering technique that blends multiple texture samples together. Selecting Application Preference will result in high quality textures, with a negligible reduction in the application's performance. l Anisotropic Filtering slider By moving this slider to the right, as the number of samples taken increases, the quality of the final image increases significantly. 16X provides extremely detailed, crisp-looking images as a result of the largest number of texture samples possible. n Texture Preference slider Selecting this decides whether your application should use high quality or high performance textures. Moving the slider to the right delivers the highest quality experience. Moving the slider to the left emphasizes a high performance solution while still providing good visuals. n Mipmap Detail Level slider This will allow you to choose the texture quality of the mipmaps the application will use. Mipmaps are a collection of different sized textures of the same image. As the user moves closer to a 3D object the image qualityshould increase, requiring a higher qualitytexture of the same image. The base mipmap is the highestquality texture, and allsubsequent mipmaps are smaller sized textures of the sameimage. Moving the slider to the right selects a higher quality base mipmap, delivering the highest quality application experience. Moving the slider to the left selects a lower quality mipmap, delivering the highestapplication performance. - 23 - Software Installation English n Wait for Vertical Sync This will lower the frame rate of full screen games but reduce the image tearing that can occur with the higher frame rate. Selecting Application Preference allows the application to decide whether or not it should display its frames at the refresh rate of the monitor. Selecting Always Off allows the application to run at its highest possible frame rate, regardless of the monitor' refresh rate which is s typically less than the frame rate at which the application will run. [. . . ] Contact your dealer or GBT for more advanced troubleshooting information. n Check that the card is seated properly in the AGP slot. n Ensure that the display cable is securely fastened to the card's display connector. n Make sure that the monitor and computer are plugged in and receiving power.
