Integrated Graphics
Media Accelerator 3100
3D/2D Controller
Microsoft DirectX® 9 based with support for Pixel Shader 2.0, 4:1 anisotropic
filtering, Gaussian texture filtering, shadow maps, volumetric textures,
double-sided stencil buffers, and 4 pixel pipes.
VGA Controller
Integrated
Bus Type
PCI Express™ x16 (If an external graphics card is installed in a PCI or PCIe x1
slot, the internal graphics can be enabled or disabled using the system's BIOS
setup utility. If a graphics card other than an SDVO/ADD2 card is installed in
the PCI Express™ x16 slot, the internal graphics cannot be enabled).
RAMDAC
Integrated, 350 MHz (2048x1536@75 Hz)
Memory
Graphics memory is shared with system memory. Graphics memory usage
varies depending on the amount of system memory installed and system load.
8 MB is pre-allocated for graphics use at system boot time. Additional memory
is allocated for graphics as needed using Intel's Dynamic Video Memory
Technology (DVMT), to provide an optimal balance between graphics and
system memory use.
System memory equal or greater than 512 MB
8 MB pre-allocated + 248 MB DVMT = max frame buffer of 256 MB
Overlay Planes
Single overlay support with 5x3 filtering
Maximum Color Depth
32 bits/pixel
Maximum Vertical
Refresh Rate
85 Hz at up to 1920x1440, 75 Hz at 2048x1536. Varies with mode and
configuration. See table below.
Multi-display Support
Support for one CRT via the motherboard's VGA connector on SFF and MT.
Support for an additional display on SFF/MT can be accomplished with the
addition of SDVO/ADD2 option installed in PCIe x16 slot.
Graphics/Video API
Support
Microsoft DirectX®9, DirectXVA®, VMR9, GDI/GDI+; OpenGL® 1.4.

1 Modes listed are supported with a single active display. The supported mode list for multiple active displays is a subset of this list.
Not all modes will support video playback and some supported modes may use software MC (motion compensation) rather than
hardware MC. Not all modes will support 3D acceleration depending on the system configuration (e.g., resolution selected, size of
frame buffer, number of installed memory modules, etc.).
NOTE:
Other resolutions and refresh rates may be selectable but are not recommended.
