OpenGL Properties:

The OpenGL properties page gives you complete control of the OpenGL settings.

nOptimization Preference

• Quality allows you to optimize your OpenGL settings for quality.

• Performance allows you to optimize your OpenGL settings for performance

nOpenGL Settings

• Convert 32 bit textures to 16 bit allows you to increase video performance for games that make heavy use of textures. However this could also reduce image quality.

• Enable KTX buffer region extension enables rapid updates of those portions of your screen that have been moved.

• Enable page flipping allows you to enable hardware acceleration of page flipping to swap full screen buffers.

• Force 16-bitZ-bufferingallows you to disable all other formats of Z-buffer and utilizes 16-bit Z-buffering.

• Disable dithering when alpha blending may remove artifacts left on the screen when both dithering and alpha blending are enabled.

• Wait for vertical sync lowers the frames per second rate in full screen games However this can reduce the image tearing that can occur with higher frame rates.

• Enable texture compression enables and disables texture compression.

• Full Screen anti-aliasingallows you to set the level of full-screen anti-aliasing. This will result in an overall higher quality image with a slight reduction inerformance.
