AMD ATI Radeon family graphics cards have their own software - Catalyst Control Center, through which users can configure various parameters.
Modern video cards have special software, thanks to which you can customize them as your heart desires. Most of these programs are installed automatically, along with drivers, and laptops that have multiple video cards also have software that allows you to switch between video cards. This ability to adjust the parameters of the video card to suit your needs allows you to better optimize your computer, for example, for games or applications that directly work with graphics.
Catalyst Control Center
The video cards of the AMD ATI Radeon family have their own software, thanks to which you can configure the video card for your own needs - Catalyst Control Center. It should be noted one significant nuance, which is that only owners of AMD ATI Radeon video cards can use the Catalyst Control Center, and this software is not intended for models of other video cards.
Using the Catalyst Control Center, the user of a personal computer can adjust the level of anti-aliasing, the degree of anisotropic filtering of textures, can set the amount of graphics memory and change many other settings that are somehow related to the graphics core of the system. Working with the settings of the video card is quite simple, since the program interface is quite clear. Adjusting the video card parameters will help to save system resources and use them exactly for the purposes that are needed.
Entering the settings of video cards of the AMD ATI Radeon family
In order to enter this program, you can right-click on the desktop, and in the context menu that appears, select the Catalyst Control Center itself. After clicking, the video card settings window itself will open, where the user can set his own values and save them.
Of course, this method is far from the last. You can enter the Catalyst Control Center through the Start panel. To do this, go to this menu, select "All Programs" and find the Catalyst Control Center in the list. Then, when you click on the shortcut of the program, the corresponding window with the settings will open.
It is quite easy and simple to work with this program. In addition, with its help, owners of several video cards can switch between them (on some laptop models). To switch, you need to go to the Catalyst Control Center and there, in the "Current active graphics processor" field, you need to switch to a high-performance video driver. Switching between graphics cards dynamically increases the battery life of your laptop.
