TruForm™ is a technology developed by ATI that overcomes the bandwidth and memory constraints of traditional 3D rendering software to produce the smoothest and most natural 3D images. TruForm™ not only enhances image smoothness, but also provides highly detailed lighting effects. This greatly enhances the realistic quality of 3D scenes by providing highlights on the surface of curved objects.

TruForm™ can be set to favor either an increase in system processing performance or improved image quality.
