Graphics Features
Intel® HD Graphics Subsystem
The graphics engine built into the 2
nd
generation processors is able to achieve high performance at
lower power consumption. It supports the next generation Intel clear video Technology HD, that is a
collection of video playback and enhancement features that improve the end user’s viewing
experience. Some of the features are:
Encoding/transcoding of HD content
• Playback of high definition content including blue-ray Disc
• Superior image quality with sharper, more colorful images
• Playback of blue-ray disc S3d content using HDMI (V1.4 with 3D)
3D Features:
DirectX Video Acceleration (DXVA) support for accelerating video processing (full AVC/VC1/MPEG2
HW Decode)
DirecttX11 support for 3
rd
Generation processors (CS4 only for 2
nd
generation)
Windows 7, XP, Vista, OSX, LINUX support
OpenGL 3.0 support
Shader Model 4.0
Supports simultaneous use of the Integrated Graphics Device (IGD) and PCI Express Graphics
device (PEG).
High-definition content up to 1080p resolution
Hardware accelerated MPEG-2, VC-1/WMV and H.264/AVC Hi-Definition video formats
Intel HD Graphics with Advanced Hardware Video Transcoding (Intel Quick Sync Video)
Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT 5.0)
DVMT enables enhanced graphics and memory performance through Direct AGP, and highly
efficient memory utilization. DVMT ensures the most efficient use of available system memory for
maximum 2-D/3-D graphics performance. DVMT returns system memory back to the operating
system when the additional system memory is no longer required by the graphics subsystem.
DVMT will always use a minimal fixed portion of system physical memory (as set in the BIOS Setup
program) for compatibility with legacy applications. An example of this would be when using VGA
graphics under DOS. Once loaded, the operating system and graphics drivers allocate additional
system memory to the graphics buffer as needed for performing graphics functions.
