The influence of different draw distances (Higher distances show more area.) In computer graphics, draw distance (render distance or view distance) is the maximum distance of objects in a three-dimensional scene that are drawn by the rendering engine.
The overlay is a dedicated buffer into which one app can render (typically video), without incurring the significant performance cost of checking for clipping and overlapping rendering by other apps. The framebuffer has hardware support for importing and rendering the buffer contents without going through the GPU. [citation needed]
AMD FreeSync requires the display to pass certification for low latency and refresh rate variation to match the render output of the graphics card. [1] AMD FreeSync Premium mandates further requirements of Low Framerate Compensation (LFC) and at least 120 Hz refresh rate at FHD resolution. LFC helps ensure that when the framerate of a game is ...
With the advent of 3D games in the 1990s, a lot of video games simply did not render distant structures or objects. Only nearby objects would be rendered and more distant parts would gradually fade, essentially implementing distance fog. Video games using LOD rendering avoid this fog effect and can render larger areas.
Direct2D [1] is a 2D vector graphics application programming interface (API) designed by Microsoft and implemented in Windows 10, [2] Windows 8, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, and also Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 (with Platform Update installed).
Developers can also implement Miracast on top of the built-in Wi-Fi Direct support in Windows 7 and Windows 8. [29] Windows 8.1 supports broadcasting/sending the screen via Miracast. [ 30 ] Another way to support Miracast in Windows is with Intel's proprietary WiDi (v3.5 or higher).
Windows 8.1 retains a per-application option to disable DPI virtualization of an app. [9] Windows 8.1 also adds the ability for each display to use an independent DPI setting, although it calculates this automatically for each display. Windows 8.1 prevents a user from forcibly enabling DPI virtualization of an application.
