Abstract
A system and method are provided for changing a display refresh rate. A first register is provided for storing at least one first refresh parameter in association with a first refresh rate. Additionally, a second register is provided for storing at least one second refresh parameter in association with a second refresh rate. Furthermore, logic is in communication with the first register and the second register. Such logic is adopted for selecting the first refresh parameter or the second refresh parameter, for the purpose of reducing artifacts resulting from a change from the first refresh rate and the second refresh rate.
