rebooted for changes to take effect. The speed available
on the slider are dependent on your motherboard’s chipset

to transfer data directly to the graphics accelerator. Fast
Write will be on by default, providing your motherboard’s
chipset supports it. Note that some motherboards may
claim to support Fast Write yet be incompatible with
certain graphics cards. Your computer must be rebooted
for changes to take effect.
Current Status Indicates the current Fast Write status. Because changes
will not take effect until after a reboot, this may not match
the Fast Write radio button selected.
