Whoa! I used to hate SLI gaming on Test Drive Unlimited (apparently Tom's Hardware favorite game, found in benchmarks) because of HORRIBLE microstuttering that made 25-30fps completely unplayable.
Hopefully, this guy is right about microstuttering being fixed with the R700 and it would be splendid!!!
That HardOCP site omitted the GTX 280's CSAA modes without even mentioning it. We all know that those Nvidia cards can do 8x and 16x CSAA modes at little to no performance cost compared to 4x AA. Yet they praise ATI's CFAA modes that are often criticized on other sites (due to edge blurriness in games that heavily utilize post-processing like Unreal3 games and extreme performance hit in many games on single 4870 cards).Originally Posted by Wrench
While it is truly to be praised that the R700 architecture can do 8x AA very well compared to Nvidia's true 8x MSAA, 8x CSAA and 16x CSAA are done with even less performance hit--usually none at all. And many sites accept that 16x CSAA is better than straight 8x MSAA.
Do you guys agree about 16x CSAA > 8x MSAA?
