3 concept, wherein a static amount of page-locked graphics memory is allocated during driver initialization. This fixed amount of memory will provide the user with a guaranteed graphics memory at all times, and will no longer be available to the OS. ► GFX Engine Clock It allows you to change the clock rate of graphics engine. ► Surround View SurroundView is the ATI technology that provides multi-graphics controller display capability for both the ATI PCIe-based graphics card and the ATI integrated graphics processor (IGP). Enabling SurroundView does not impact display modes (resolution and color depth) or performance. The display mode of each output is controlled independently by the graphics controller connected to it. 1. When using a non-ATI PCI Express (PCIe) graphics card, SurroundView is not supported. The integrated graphics processor (IGP) is automatically disabled, and the system memory allocated to the IGP is freed for other use. 2. When installing an ATI PCIe graphics card, SurroundView is disabled by default. Enabling SurroundView in the BIOS enables the integrated UMA graphics controller, which in turn makes available up to two additional graphics outputs. When enabling the integrated UMA graphics controller, system memory will be reallocated. ► VBIOS Type This item is used to select the HDMI or DVI video BIOS. If an HDMI monitor is connected to your system, please choose HDMI, if a DVI monitor is attached, please choose DVI. ► NB Azalia This item is used to set whether the HD Audio controller is enabled through the HDMI port on the rear panel.

► GFX Engine Clock
It allows you to change the clock rate of graphics engine.
► Surround View
SurroundView is the ATI technology that provides multi-graphics controller display capability
for both the ATI PCIe-based graphics card and the ATI integrated graphics processor (IGP).
Enabling SurroundView does not impact display modes (resolution and color depth) or
performance. The display mode of each output is controlled independently by the graphics
controller connected to it.
1. When using a non-ATI PCI Express (PCIe) graphics card, SurroundView is not supported.
The integrated graphics processor (IGP) is automatically disabled, and the system memory
allocated to the IGP is freed for other use.
2. When installing an ATI PCIe graphics card, SurroundView is disabled by default. Enabling
SurroundView in the BIOS enables the integrated UMA graphics controller, which in turn
makes available up to two additional graphics outputs. When enabling the integrated UMA
graphics controller, system memory will be reallocated.
► VBIOS Type
This item is used to select the HDMI or DVI video BIOS. If an HDMI monitor is connected to
your system, please choose HDMI, if a DVI monitor is attached, please choose DVI.
► NB Azalia
This item is used to set whether the HD Audio controller is enabled through the HDMI port on
the rear panel.
Memory Configuration
► Bank Interleaving
Interleaving allows banks of SDRAM to alternate their refresh and access cycles. One
bank will undergo its refresh cycle while another is being accessed. This improves memory
performance by masking the refresh cycles of each memory bank.
