    Image Quality for X1950XTX vs 7950GX2 article

    Nope. The reason is not a super-sampling mode. Yes, it is possible. Yes and no... This texture sampling is based on lod sampling and filtering in(side) fragment program (a.k.a. pixel shader). Basically, it just fetch two lod samples (texture lookups) with different bias values and...

    Image Quality for X1950XTX vs 7950GX2 article

    Well ATI's HQAF is not fully angle-independent but _less_ angle-dependent than NV's AF :) The "less" angle-dependent anisotropic filtering can be done also on G7x (and NV4x) gpu with fragment programs/shaders (OpenGL or D3D). The performance hit you'll get is only like ~1 fps (depends on the...

    ATI X1950XTX Review!

    Yeah... well in my opinion AA is pretty useless with high resolutions (16x12 or higher). Btw. MSAA doesn't work with GRAW and BIA (even on ATI cards) :)

    ATI X1950XTX Review!

    These are my "Q vs HQ" results. Optimizations are disabled manually and after that HQ is set. System: A64 3200+ @ 2500 MHz, 2GB RAM, single 7900GTX (740/1900), ForceWare 91.31 Settings: 16x12 + AA 4x/AF 16x + game settings maxed Doom 3 (ogl) - HQ 92,0 fps vs Q 94,7 fps - ~3% Quake 4...

    Hdr + Aa

    hehe... it's not the bloom effect - it's HDR with kinda "AA" :)

    Hdr + Aa

    Kinda "AA" + HDR (better than nothing) is also possible with G70 and NV40 series cards.... http://www.skenegroup.net/tertsi/oblivion/nvidia_oblivion_noaa_vs_aa4x.html

    Real World x1900 series benchmarks

    Are you kidding me... how about 19" LCD (max 1280x1024 resolution) ? :)

    Real World x1900 series benchmarks

    1280x1024 + all F.E.A.R. settings maxed + soft-shadows + with and without AA 4x/AF 16x... that should be enough :)

    Crossfire x1800xt tested at XS

    OpenGL got 35% (more like 15-35%) boost on x1800 series = only when AA is enabled (very small gains with AF). Without AA the generic OpenGL performance is still bad on x1800 series.

    Even More Performance increase with Doom3/OpenGL for X1800?

    NVIDIA "addict" heheheh nice complain... I'm just pointing out that there are some Quake 4 quality issues on ATI cards with newer drivers (mostly CatAI enabled). actually I meant that this "bug" is 16bit color depth bug probably in the alpha textures.... wonder why? Correct me if I am wrong, but...
