4. Software Reference Mipmapping Options Mipmap levels automatically generated This option lets the hardware automatically generate mipmaps to increase the efficiency of texture transfers across the bus and provide higher application performance. Auto-mipmap method This option lets you choose the auto-mipmap method. Choose bilinear method for a generally improved performance or anisotropic method for a generally higher quality image. Mipmap detail level This option lets you adjust the level of detail bias for mipmaps. A lower bias will increase the application performance. Command Buffer Location Command Buffer Location lets you choose the location of the command buffer. Default setting is Strict AGP. Strict AGP This option forces all the command buffer into the AGP memory. Choose for best performance. PCI This option forces the command buffer to be created into the PCI memory. If you are experiencing stability problems with your system (especially with some Socket 7 motherboards), choose this option for better compatibility. PCI with reduced heap This option forces the command buffer to be created into the PCI memory. This, however, also reduces the AGP heap size by an amount equal to the size of the command buffer. If you are experiencing stability problems with your system (especially with some Socket 7 motherboards), choose this option for best compatibility. Performance is, however, poorer using this option compared with the PCI option. 4. S/W Reference Direct3D ASUS V6600/V6800 User's Manual 61
