Introduction
GLoria II Video Memory
The video memory is a local block of RAM for holding major data structures: Frame Buffer
(double buffer), Z-Buffer and T-Buffer (Texture Buffer). The Frame Buffer holds one frame
steady on the screen while the next one is being processed. The Z-Buffer stores depth
information for each pixel.
The NVIDIA Quadro graphics processor dynamically allocates the memory. The higher the
resolution (e.g., 1920 1080)and the deeper the Z-Buffer (32-bit max.), the less memory is
available for texture.
Available GLoria II Video Resolutions
If the resolution/refresh-rate combination is set higher than the display can support, you
risk damaging the display.
The table below summarizes the 3D video resolutions which are supported.
