The cheats that Nvidia used changed the image quality and thus the gameplay but this is hardly a game play changer.

Has anyone seen the AF results of GF100, can you say that the implementation in practicality and theory complement each other? In theory a 5850 is much better than the GTX 480 in AF but does in really translate in practical superior AF performance....


GTX 480


5870

So AF seems much better in 5870 so one can say Nvidia's implementation should be faster because its not perfect and Nvidia is cheating and gaining performance in AF situations but in reality the IQ is not really influenced that much at all.
