Below is a list of supported resolutions:

Frame Rate Target Control™ (FRTC)

FRTC allows the user to set a maximum frame rate when playing an application in full screen exclusive mode. This feature provides the following benefits:

• Reduced GPU power consumption
• Reduced system heat
• Lower fan speeds and less noise

Performance Optimizations
