Option
No Tearing
Fast Buffer Swaps
The "*Max Compatibility" setting provides maximum compatibility for
those applications that mix OpenGL and Windows GDI rendering in
double-buffered windows, contrary to Microsoft requirements. If your
application is not listed, choose this option.
The "*Max Performance" setting will provide the maximum graphics
throughput. However, many applications may exhibit visual anomalies.
The "*Custom" setting becomes active when the user manually modifies
one or more settings. For more information refer to "Creating Custom
Driver Configurations" below.
Select the application software you are using (e.g. SoftImage,
Solidworks).
"No tearing" prevents the tearing effect seen when rendering in the
middle of a vertical refresh. When this option is enabled, performance
may be reduced because rendering waits for a vertical refresh to finish.
This is especially true for large windows.
"Fast buffer swaps" takes advantage of HP's multi buffer hardware. The
hardware has a physical front and back buffer that can be swapped very
quickly. For compatibility with some applications, this option can be
turned off, and the back buffer copied to the front buffer instead.
