How does AMD set up a graphics card firefight? 250

Prepare two or more graphics cards of the same model and support the crossfire function, you will see ATI Crossfire X technology on the graphics card manual, which indicates that this card can crossfire with another card of the same model, and the motherboard manual will also have This motherboard supports ATI Quad GPU Crossfire X technology Then this motherboard can withstand AMD dual card crossfire, plug the graphics card into the PCIe X16 interface of the motherboard, and the other plug in the interface, and then connect the device, That is, the crossfire card that comes with the graphics card, inserted on top of the two graphics cards, make sure that it is installed properly, remember to connect the power cable, then turn on the computer, re-drive, and then see an ATI catalyst in the lower right corner of the desktop, control panel, call up the panel, once the system detects that there are multiple graphics cards on the motherboard, catalyst will appear, click GO, enter the advanced panel, and then find graphics settings, then crossfire, then configure, and finally check the box in the field of starting crossfire, and then restart the computer

1. Two or more discrete graphics cards that support crossfire (NVIDIA graphics cards can only be crossfired, and they need to be of the same model.) The AMD graphics card can only be exchanged with the AMD graphics card, and the graphics card of the same architecture is required. In addition, some APU GPUs can also be exchanged with AMD GPUs of the same architecture.

2. The motherboard must support multi-card crossfire technology, for example, the motherboard needs more than 2 more PCI graphics card slots (small board direct pass), the motherboard needs to support SLI and Crossfire technology, and the driver needs to be installed correctly.

3. Crossfire wires, or crossfire connectors, are needed.

4. The motherboard has at least two PCI E16X slots.

Set up the graphics card firefight:

1. On the computer desktop, right-click to open the menu. Click on "Radeon Settings".

2. At the top of the "Radeon Settings" panel, find "Game" and click to enter.

3. After entering the "Game" panel, find "Global Settings" and click Open.

4. In the last step, find "AmdCrossFire" in the "Global Settings" panel, and click the button at the bottom right of "AmdCrossFire" to turn on the graphics card Crossfire.

AMD's graphics card firefight:

Multiple graphics cards can be used side-by-side on a single computer at the same time to increase computing performance, and NVIDIA's similar technology is called SLI bridging technology.

The goal is often to dramatically increase the graphics processing power of the entire computer, so that 3D games can run better.

To put it simply, a computer that uses two graphics cards at the same time will definitely improve the graphics performance compared to one graphics card, otherwise there is no need to study this technology.

At present, the mainstream graphics card crossfire technology in the consumer market is mainly the technology of AMD and NVIDIA, which is the Crossfire crossfire technology used by AMD graphics cards; There's also the SLI crossfire technology used by NVIDIA graphics cards.

Set up the graphics card firefight:

1. On the computer desktop, right-click to open the menu. Click on "Radeon Settings".

2. At the top of the "Radeon Settings" panel, find "Game" and click to enter.

3. After entering the "Game" panel, find "Global Settings" and click Open.

4. In the last step, find "AmdCrossFire" in the "Global Settings" panel, and click the button at the bottom right of "AmdCrossFire" to turn on the graphics card Crossfire.

The specific steps are as follows:

1.Right-click on the desktop of the computer, select "Display Card Properties" in the drop-down menu that appears, and click to enter (as shown below).

2.After clicking to enter the "Display Card Properties" interface, click the "Startup" item in the "Preferences" (as shown below):

7.After entering the "Annotate 3D Settings (High-Performance Graphics Card)" interface, set it to "Best Quality", and then apply it (as shown below).

Extended Information: Graphics Crossfire (AMD-ATI's multi-graphics technology is called Crossfire; NVIDIA's multi-graphics technology is called SLI) Simply put: making two or more graphics cards work together means that the chipset supports multi-graphics card parallelism technology that can improve the graphics processing power of the system or meet some special needs.

To achieve multi-graphics technology, it generally requires the support of the motherboard chipset, graphics chip, and driver.

The emergence of multi-graphics card technology is to effectively solve the contradiction between the growing demand for graphics processing and the insufficient graphics processing capacity of existing display chips. In the PC field, as early as the 3DFX era, the SLI technology represented by VOODOO2 has made people feel the charm of 3D games for the first time; In the high-end professional field, there have long been manufacturers who have developed dozens or even hundreds of display cores working together for military simulation, professional drawing and other fields.

Crossfire can improve the performance of the original discrete graphics card.

But the performance of your original 6450 is quite poor, and the performance of the low-end card is still a low-end card after the firefight, and it can't catch up with the current mainstream 5-600 yuan or more independent graphics card.

The specific firefight steps are as follows, 3. Then press the DEL button to enter the BIOS. Take ASRock A75 Pro4

For example, when you go to the Northbridge adjustment option, you can see that there is a "Dual Graphics Surround."

view" option, we set it to "enabled", so that we have enabled the dual graphics crossfire feature from the hardware settings. Next, we need to open the dual graphics card from the system's catalyst control center.

Crossfire function, please continue.

4. Boot into the system, first wait for the system to load the driver for the newly installed discrete graphics card (it may need to be restarted), then we right-click on the blank space of the desktop, select the "AMD Vision Engine Control Center" option, and enter the Vision Integrated Drive Control Center.

5. Right-click on the blank space of the desktop, select the "AMD Vision Engine Control Center" option, in the Vision Integrated Drive Control Center, we can find "Perfomance" in the tab on the left'option, click on it, and you can see the "AMD Crossfire" option in the submenu below.

6. After clicking on the "AMD Crossfire" option, in the dialog box that pops up on the right, we need to check "Enable."

CrossFire" option, at this time the screen may have a flickering or a short black screen, wait for a while, APU

The dual-graphics crossfire function has been turned on from the software. It should be noted that it is best to reboot the system at this time to ensure that the dual graphics card crossfire function is 100% successful.

As shown below:

2 x 480 firefights? That's enough electricity. The following steps are indispensable.

1. First, use the graphics card bridge to connect the crossfire gold finger of the two cards. However, due to the relatively low speed of the PCI-E bus and the data transmission of other equipment in the system, it will affect the operation efficiency after the crossfire, so it is the best way to connect two gold fingers to form a crossfire system.

2. After the crossfire system is formed, the display should be connected to the output end of the main card, otherwise there will be no image display. The main card is the one next to the CPU, which will be responsible for reassembling the two graphics cards and finally outputting them. Also, there is an auxiliary power supply on the graphics card, both of which need to be plugged in.

3.Update the latest AMD Catalytic Converter, then open the AMD CrossFirex performance interface, check Enable AMD CrossFirex, and then save and restart the computer.

Crossfire graphics means that integrated graphics and discrete graphics work together to maximize performance. Therefore, in terms of performance, AMD's unique crossfire technology is better than the graphics card switching technology, and AMD has both graphics card crossfire technology and graphics card switching technology.

1. AMD AP turns on dual graphics card crossfire technology, you need to enable dual memory channels, for example, a single memory will definitely not be satisfied, and dual memory can be formed into dual channels. You can use CPU-Z to tell if the memory has dual-channel mode enabled. As shown in the figure below, the memory is in dual-channel mode.

2. Right-click on the blank space on the desktop and select "AMD Vision Engine Control Center" to open the AMD graphics card console.

3. After entering the interface, click "Preferences" in the upper right corner and select "Advanced View".

4. Click "Performance" on the left side, and then click "AMD Radeon Dual Graphics", you can choose to enable and disable dual graphics card firefight mode as needed. Once you've made your selection, click "Apply" in the lower right corner.

5. The interface of turning on and off the crossfire mode for some models of graphics card drivers is as shown below, and the previous operation steps are the same. Selecting "Enable Crossfire" means turning on Crossfire Mode, and turning it off otherwise. After you select it, click "Apply" in the lower right corner and the settings will take effect.

The first step of the firefight: platform formation.

Select a chassis that supports the front interface.

The crossfire platform does not have high requirements for the chassis power supply, the power supply only needs to be rated at 300W, which is fully enough for the platform power supply, and in the selection of models, it is recommended to choose the chassis that supports the front expansion output, and the chassis with the front interface output will be a good choice.

After the platform is assembled, it should be noted that before the crossfire, do not install the independent display, and install the system and driver first under the integrated display (it is recommended to use the latest driver to better play the crossfire effect), and then carry out subsequent operations.

Crossfire Step 2: Installation of the system.

AMD's Hybrid CrossFireX technology, because it is a new technology, only supports the construction of dual-graphics crossfire platforms under Windows 7.

Crossfire Step 3: BIOS Setup.

BIOS language settings.

After the system and driver are installed, reboot the system, enter the BIOS interface, and set up the corresponding settings before the firefight.

Display options. Go to the Graphics Configuration sub-option under Advanced Options for the motherboard BIOS.

igd video

Select the Primary Video Device item and adjust the display mode to IGD Video mode.

Set to force

In order to improve the GPU core performance of the APU, you can also increase the shared video memory. Also under the Graphics Configuration option, turn on the Integrated Graphics option and adjust the option property to Force.

1G shared video memory.

After opening Force, you can see the Shared Video Memory adjustment option, and manually set the 1G Shared Video Memory.

Adjust the memory frequency.

Since the GPU of the APU shows that the cores share memory as video memory, the memory frequency also directly affects the graphics performance of the APU. In order to increase the memory frequency, we can go to the UNIKA OCT page in the BIOS, select the memory clock mode option, and change the automatic allocation of video memory to manual allocation.

Changed to 1866MHz

And in the MemClock Value option that appears later, adjust the memory frequency to 1866MHz. Now that the BIOS is set, press F10 to save the BIOS information and exit the BIOS settings interface.

Crossfire Step 4: The firefight is complete.

After installing the system, driver, and setting up the BIOS, you can plug in the independent graphics card.

After booting into the system, the driver will automatically recognize the dual graphics card, and will prompt whether to select the dual graphics card crossfire output, which is very convenient without the user setting it separately.

In addition, in the formation of a dual-graphics card crossfire platform, the display output is a centralized display output.
