Configuring DirectX Options
Full-scene Antialiasing
Choose one of the following from the dropdown menu:
Disabled: Full-scene antialiasing is disabled in all applications.
Automatic: Full-scene antialiasing is disabled by default, but can be enabled by applications. If
enabled, the application will use the sample count indicated by the slider.
Force On: Full-scene antialiasing is enabled in all applications. Applications will use the sample
count indicated on the slider.
4X Sampling: This setting forces the graphics adapter to use antialiasing with four samples per
pixel. This is the fastest of the antialiasing options.
8X Sampling: This setting forces the graphics adapter to use antialiasing with eight samples per
pixel. This setting will produce the smoothest image
Wait for Vertical Sync
This option sets the vertical sync behavior to be used by Direct3D applications in full-screen mode.
Vertical Synchronization means that applications must wait until the display device is ready before
they can perform drawing operations. This places an upper limit on the frame rate an application
can achieve, but is sometimes necessary to prevent 'tearing' artifacts caused by drawing operations
from one frame bleeding into the next.
Enabled: Vertical synchronization is enabled in Direct3D applications in full-screen mode.
Disabled by Default: Vertical synchronization is disabled unless an application specifically enables
it.
