Internal Graphics Configuration
► Internal Graphics Mode
It allows you to determine whether to allocate memory for the integrated graphics controller
from the system memory. Options: [Disabled], [Enabled].
[Disabled]- Disables the integrated graphics controller.
[enabled]-Enables the integrated graphics controller.
► UMA Frame Buffer Size
Allocates system memory for use as video memory to ensure the most efficient use of
available resources for maximum 2D/3D graphics performance.
This is a memory allocation method addition to the Unified Memory Architecture (UMA)
concept, wherein a static amount of page-locked graphics memory is allocated during driver
initialization. This fixed amount of memory will provide the user with a guaranteed graphics
memory at all times, and will no longer be available to the OS.
► Primary Video Controller
This item allows you to select the priority of boot sequence from different display devices. Set-
ting values are: [GFX0-IGFX-PCI], [PCI-GFX0-IGFX], [IGFX-GFX0-PCI].
► Surround View
SurroundView is the ATI technology that provides multi-graphics controller display capability
for both the ATI PCIe-based graphics card and the ATI integrated graphics processor (IGP).
Enabling SurroundView does not impact display modes (resolution and color depth) or perfor-
mance. The display mode of each output is controlled independently by the graphics controller
connected to it.
1. When using a non-ATI PCI Express (PCIe) graphics card, SurroundView is not supported.
The integrated graphics processor (IGP) is automatically disabled, and the system memory
allocated to the IGP is freed for other use.
2. When installing an ATI PCIe graphics card, SurroundView is disabled by default. Enabling
SurroundView in the BIOS enables the integrated UMA graphics controller, which in turn
makes available up to two additional graphics outputs. When enabling the integrated UMA
graphics controller, system memory will be reallocated.
