Wait for Vblank lets you determine whether the OpenGL driver will attempt to synchronize screen
updates to the vertical blanking interval. Smooth animation of 3D applications can be achieved by
rendering (drawing) to an off-screen window/ desktop-sized color buffer and copying or swapping the
contents to the displayable front buffer at the completion of each frame.

Visible “tearing” can occur if Wait for VBlank is not selected. Disabling this option gives the highest
rendering frame rates of double buffered applications. You should disable this option, for instance,
when running benchmarks.

Stereo View Support is unavailable on the Oxygen VX1-16 card.
