Cleaning up the edges and smoothing scenery

 

 

Remember those AquaMark3 AA screen shots we showed you earlier in this piece?  ATi's AA is not only slightly better than NVIDIA's, it's also somewhat faster.  It's interesting to note that NVIDIA's new Det 51.75 drivers may have improved AA performance a bit as well, although the difference may be more attributed to the 2X AF settings we used in these runs.  Regardless, if you like to turn on AA and leave it on (and who wouldn't with a $300 - $500 graphics card?), then ATi's Radeon 9800 Pro has the edge here in AQM3.
