Graphics Command Center – an app to improve your gaming experience

Intel recently released a new app for Windows 10 with plenty of options to optimize the GPU (the integrated Intel HD Graphics), including advanced settings that improve your experience with Intel Graphics and tune games and apps for the best performance.
That app is Graphics Command Center – an app to improve your gaming experience. On top of the features above, it also includes basic options for quick access to settings such as Display, Video, System and more — changing the resolution, contrast and so on.

​

If you’re a gamer, you probably already know some of the important graphics settings for games and apps. Here I’ll use the PUBG Android emulator as an example.

• Go to the Home tab, GAME section
• Click Manually Select

​

• Find the game’s exe file; here I chose League of Legends. Click Add to library.

​

When you boost the speed or quality of your graphics card, you’ve surely come across some important settings such as:
Anti-aliasing: this smooths the edges of in-game images, making them look more realistic on lower-resolution screens. It does cost a little performance, though. You can follow Intel’s recommended level.

• For example: a small but high-resolution screen only needs AA level 2, while a large, low-resolution screen needs a higher AA level to avoid jagged edges in game.

​

Anisotropic Filtering: this makes objects in the game look sharper. Adjust it to the level that suits you best.
VSync (Vertical Sync): sync means synchronizing the FPS (frames per second) of the game you’re playing with the Refresh Rate (how often the screen redraws).
When the graphics card outputs more frames than the screen can draw — that is, more frames than the screen actually handles, for example 100 FPS on a 60 Hz monitor — you get screen tearing, because several images overlap on the screen at once. V-Sync keeps the graphics card and the screen in sync, so the GPU only works hard enough to match the screen’s refresh rate.
