Vpu Recover - Gigabyte GV-RX26T256H Manual

VPU Recover:

VPU Recover is a tool capable of detecting the rare situation when the graphics processor is no longer
able to respond to display driver commands. When this occurs, VPU Recover attempts to reset the
graphics processor so that you are able to continue using your computer without interruption or loss of
data. In most cases, VPU Recover will be able to reset the graphics processor without requiring a
system restart. If the computer cannot recover from a crash, VPU Recover will switch the computer
to software rendering mode, allowing you to save any work in progress before restarting the computer.
ATI Overdrive:
Use Overdrive to maximize your viewing experience by dynamically and safely overclocking the
graphics processor and memory. Use the Automated clock configuration utility to obtain the ATI
recommended speeds for the graphics processor clock and video memory clock. Alternatively,
manually set these speeds to meet your specific requirements. Finally, Overdrive can be configured
to run when the computer is booted or only when running 3D applications.
