Anti-Aliasing

Hey,

I bought this new video card, and I wonder the following..

What is the better AA if you look at quality, Super or Multi-Sampling?

Thanks,


Brum

IIRC it goes:

Off -> Multisampling -> Supersampling

Super being the best, for most graphics cards can be laggy, especially in forest type scene's (lots of trees)

It should make environment objects like wire/fences/trees look better at longer distances, its similar to AF. The further away you get the more the fence gradually disappears and looks bad. Super sampling draws it at longer distances instead of bad quality square disintegrating wire. I recommend to set it to mutlisampling if you are using NVIDIA forced setup rather than "let the application decide" or whatever it is. It produces almost good as super but is far better in performance. Although some graphics cards will not support this and will have to be "off".

Thanks, I feel no difference in performance between Super and Multi so I'm gonna let it stay on Super!

Any idea if I can set it to super on a NVidia 7600gtoc with all other settings at medium and the res running at 1440x900.
