textures per pass to a complex 3D gaming scene.

• TV output support.

• TRUFORM™ technology which makes the curved

surfaces of 3D objects look smoother and more

life-like.

• SMARTSHADER™ technology which can

realistically create the visual properties of any

material, like glass, metal, wood, and produce 3D

depth by rendering the object’s shadows.

• SMOOTHVISION™ which provides users with

various degrees of jagged edge removal from 3D

images, allowing users to configure their own high

quality or high performance gaming experience.

ATI’s Catalyst

™

Software Suite

Multiple Displays and 3D Gaming Experience

ATI’s Catalyst Software Suite provides multiple

display functionality, and the advanced graphic

features, such as TRUFORM, for the ultimate 3D

gaming experience. For help on installing the

Catalyst Software Suite, refer to the Getting Started

Guide.

The Catalyst Software Suite installs the ATI display

tabs. These tabs are accessed through the Windows®

Display Control Panel, through the Advanced...

button located on the Settings tab. For a detailed

explanation of each ATI tab, refer to Catalyst™

Software Suite on page 7.

Direct3D®and OpenGL®

The Catalyst Software Suite also supports the latest

versions of Direct3D®and OpenGL®. Many new 3D

game titles, and the latest versions of older titles, will

virtually come to life as they utilize their advanced

Direct3D®or OpenGL®features. Gamers can tweak

their settings for the ultimate experience in 3D image

quality or 3D gaming performance.

ATI’s Direct3D® and OpenGL®tabs are available

through the Windows®Display Control Panel,

through the Advanced... button located on the

Settings tab.

For a detailed explanation of the Direct3D®and

OpenGL®tabs, refer to Direct3D® Control Panel

on page 13, and OpenGL® Control Panel on

page 18.
