The color quality in display properties in XP?
Posted in Monitors on July 29th, 2008
hi, when i right click on my desktop
and click on “properties” and when i go to the “Settings tab”
that's where i can Change my resolution, and change the color quality, but under on Color Quality
its showing up as:
[Color Quality ]
[Highest (32 bit)]
i usually leave it on 32 bit, is that the best one?
can i change it to 64 bit? or should i leave it on 32 bit……
My O.S. Is Windows XP (Pro)
thanks.
Answer:
xp cant utilist 64 bit colour, so 32 is fine. in all honesty, we cant distinguish the difference between 24 and 32, so 64 is only really beneficial for the satisfaction of gamer geeks telling everyone they have a 64bit graphics card or whatever.
just leave it on 32bit and be happy =p
Answer:
The difference between 32 bit and 64 bit (if the latter is even available on your PC) is discernible:
Settings go:
2bit - 16 colors
8 bit - 256 colors
High color (16 bit) - 65536 colors
True Color (32 bit) - 16 million colors
64 bit would be about 4 *billion* (billiard in UK English) colors. The human eye has a hard enough time distinguishing 16 million colors on a screen, and any more than that would be pretty moot - you're speaking HD territory, there. For regular Personal computer usage, 32 bit is the ideal achievable.
If you actually would have a video card that could display 64 bit color, all it would do is decrease performance, because the amount of colors used has a direct reference to the amount of memory required to run the OS, let alone software installed on it.
Answer:
Leave it on 32 bit. That's what everyone has. You can't change it to 64 bit.
Answer:
32 bit is the norm right now, until new hardware and moniters are released however.
