Chapter 6 Intregrated Graphics Subsystem
6.1 INTRODUCTION
This chapter describes graphics subsystem that is integrated into the 82865G GMCH component
used in these systems. This graphics subsystem employs the use of system memory to provide
efficient, economical 2D and 3D performance.
Upgrading these systems is accomplished by installing either an AGP Digital Display (ADD) card
to add digital monitor capability or substituting the integrated graphics by installing a separate
AGP or PCI graphics card. The system will detect an installed graphics controller card during the
boot sequence and disable the integrated graphics controller of the 82865G GMCH.
NOTE:
Separate AGP graphics cards that are included in the standard system
configurations of some models are described in the appendices of this guide.
