Resumen del manual
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 the section CATALYST Software Suite on page 7. Direct 3D and OpenGL The CATALYST Software Suite also supports the latest versions of Direct 3D and OpenGL. Many new 3D game titles, and the latest versions of older titles, will virtually come to life as they utilize their advanced Direct 3D or OpenGL features. Gamers can fine-tune their settings for the ultimate experience in 3D image quality or 3D gaming performance. ATI’s Direct 3D 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 Direct 3D and OpenGL tabs, refer to Direct 3D Control Panel on page 16, and OpenGL Control Panel on page 21. HydraVision™ In addition to the multiple display functionality available with ATI’s CATALYST Software Suite, you can also use HydraVision for advanced multi-monitor management. For more information on HydraVision, please refer to the HydraVision User’s Guide PDF located on your ATI Installation CD.

To connect a flat panel directly to your card, use the DVI-I connector.
