Re: Check out my new 3dMark score
I know you don't know me, and I don't know you. Hi I'm Slasher I play CS:S and BF2142. Anyways down to business, if your running a screen over say about 20" at a rez like 1600x1200 or so there really is no reason for anything higher than 4xAA 16x will just be hard on the card and will barely look better, but i guess when your competing with benchmarks there is a reason to do it. O and Aquamark 3 is best in my opinion. :P happy fragging!

Oblivion on the other got super laggy and I run it at x8. Some games dont anti alias very many surfaces which significantly affects the amount of work the GPU does when you crank up AA. If I turn on "override" instead of "enhance" on BF series games I notice a framerate decrease of about 5 (which is nothing because I am never under 55 anyway). Override applies AA to every surface, not just application determined surfaces. I actually use override for BF series games because I like the way it looks at x16.
Also, the 8800 GT and the 8800 GTX are very close in performance because the GT uses the new G92 technology. It outperforms my 8800 GTS 640 and costs 100 bucks less (damn them to hell!)
Also, I have always admired you avatar; super awesome. I in fact saved it to show some people because I found it so funny!
