„ Anisotropic Filtering Anisotropic Filtering is a technique that preserves detail on surfaces that have three-dimensional perspective and fade away into the background. It works best when used in conjunction with Mipmapping. Anisotropic Filtering can be set to favor either an increase in system processing performance or improved image quality: Setting for performance is best used with applications that display objects with smooth, simple surfaces, like those seen in CAD applications. Setting for quality is best used with applications that display highly detailed scenes, backgrounds, and textured objects, like those seen in 3D games. If you are unsure how to configure anisotropic filtering, use the Use application settings option. Your display will automatically adjust to the application's requirements. „ CATALYST® A.I. Catalyst® A.I. makes use of ATI's new texture analyzer technology to optimize performance in 3D applications while maintaining or even improving image quality. It analyzes individual textures as they are loaded to determine the best and fastest way to display them. GV-R487-512H-B Graphics Accelerator - 28 -
