    Negative LOD would make the edges too sharp and it would cause tearing in fast action scenes. Not recommended.

    I run -0.5 to -1.0 @ 1600x1200 32 no AA or AF. -1.0 is on the edge of being way too sharp making the fine texture details start to look like speckles. Try it and see what you think of it. Under most circumstances -0.5 looks pretty good to me but it's all in the eye of the beholder.
