The GV-R7032T/GV-R7064T package contains the following: l The GV-R7032T/GV-R7064T graphics accelerator l This USER'S MANUAL l DVD Player software included l CD for driver & Utilities

WARNING!

Expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To protect them against damage from static electricity, you should follow some precautions whenever you work on your computer.

1.Turn off your computer and unplug power supply.

2.Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do not have one, touch both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a metal object, such as the power supply case.

3.Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the components whenever the components are separated from the system.

The card contains sensitive electric components, which can be easily damaged by static electricity, so the card should be left in its original packing until it is installed.

Unpacking and installation should be done on a grounded anti-static mat. The operator should be wearing an anti-static wristband, grounded at the same point as the anti-static mat.

Inspect the card carton for obvious damage. Shipping and handling may cause damage to your card. Be sure there are no shipping and handling damages on the card before proceeding.

M DO NOT APPLY POWER TO YOUR SYSTEM IF IT HAS BEEN DAMAGED ON THE

CARD.

M In order to ensure your graphics card working correctly, please use official Gigabyte

BIOS only Use none official gigabyte BIOS might cause problem on the graphics

card.

OpenGL Properties:

The OpenGL properties page gives you complete control of the OpenGL 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.

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 control over your application experience. Using Custom Settings is recommended for advanced users only.

l Anti-Aliasing checkbox improves image quality by removing jagged edges from 3D images, resulting in smoother, more natural looking objects.

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 quality should increase, requiring a higher quality texture of the same image. The base mipmap is the highest quality texture, and all subsequent mipmaps are smaller sized

textures of the same image. 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 highest application performance.

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’s refresh rate which is typically less than the frame rate at which the application will run.

n Compatibility Settings button

This button allows you to access advanced settings that can solve compatibility issues for a few specific OpenGL applications.

l Force Z-buffer depth allows you to explicitly set the Z-Buffer depth. Most applications will work best when Disabled is selected.

l Alpha dithering method l Support KTX buffer region extension Enabling this feature allows rapid updates of those portions of your screen that have changed. Note that most applications will not be affected by activating this feature.
