after installing the drivers the display is set to the lowest values, namely 640 x 480 resolution with 256 colors and 60 hz refresh rate. your first task is to increase all these values to a more comfortable level, especially the refresh rate, which is best set to at least 75 hz to avoid flickering.

    our tip is: invest a little time at this stage and you won’t regret it. take the time to optimally tune your combination of monitor and graphics board. your eyes will thank you for it, and you are guaranteed to have more fun in front of your screen.

    to set up your system properly, the following questions should be answered:

    1 what is the maximum resolution i can set on my system?

    2 which color depth do i want to use?

    3 how high should the refresh rate be set?
