4. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

4.1 Installazzjoni tas-sewwieq

After hardware installation, you must install the latest graphics drivers for optimal performance and stability:

1. Ixgħel il-kompjuter tiegħek.
2. Żur l-appoġġ uffiċjali tal-ASUS websit (www.asus.com/support) or NVIDIA's driver download page (www.nvidia.com/sewwieqa).
3. Fittex għal your graphics card model (GTX 1650 Super) and download the latest recommended drivers for your operating system.
4. Mexxi l-installatur li niżżilt u segwi l-istruzzjonijiet fuq l-iskrin. Jista' jkun meħtieġ li terġa' tibda s-sistema.

4.2 Konfigurazzjoni tal-Wiri

Your graphics card supports up to four displays. You can configure display settings through your operating system's display settings or the NVIDIA Control Panel after driver installation.

• Monitor Uniku: Connect your primary monitor to any available HDMI or DisplayPort.
• Monitors Multipli: Connect additional monitors to the remaining ports. Use the display settings in your OS to extend or duplicate your desktop.

4.3 ASUS GPU Tweak II

GPU Tweak II is a utility that allows you to monitor and fine-tune your graphics card's performance. Download it from the ASUS support websit.

• Monitoraġġ: View real-time information on GPU clock speed, memory clock, temperature, and fan speed.
• Overclocking: Adjust clock speeds and voltage for increased performance (use with caution).
• Kontroll tal-fann: Customize fan curves for optimal cooling and noise levels.
• Logħob Profiles: Create and switch between different performance profiles għal diversi applikazzjonijiet.

4.4 ASUS Aura Sync

The graphics card features integrated RGB lighting compatible with ASUS Aura Sync. Download the Aura Sync software from the ASUS website to customize lighting effects and synchronize them with other Aura Sync-enabled components in your system.

5. Manutenzjoni

Manutenzjoni xierqa tiżgura l-lonġevità u l-prestazzjoni ottimali tal-karta grafika tiegħek.

• Tneħħija tat-Trab: Periodically clean dust from the fans and heatsink using compressed air. Ensure the computer is powered off and unplugged before cleaning. Avoid touching the fan blades directly.
