It is funny that... (AA&AF)
It is funny that everyone makes a big deal about running with full AA and AF
when most people won't run a game with it anyway. I want the fastest framerates possible while playing Planetside online. The faster it runs, the better chance I have of not dying. The candy looks great when showing off my system, but when it comes to game time... |

AA and AF is usually defined by the application, though power users can force it too. I want the fastest framerates possible while playing Planetside online. The faster it runs, the better chance I have of not dying. faster than 30fps is useless for a human being, you need a lot of fps just in case there's a brutal drop, but having 150fps instead of 70 is really useless. Anyway, your reflexes are the weak link. What can you do in 20ms ? -- XandreX /I'm that kind of people your parents warned you about/ |

The candy looks great when showing off my system, but when it comes to game time... I will never play another game without AA, unless I happen to get into a braindead shooter where I need to kill as many things as I can in as little time as possible. But for games like NWN, Dungeon Siege, Morrowind, NOLF2, Madden, etc. AA/AF are required. True, but I only use 2xAA not 8x which is what everyone seems to be ranting about. Buy what you want and enjoy it. Why is there such a need to make everyone buy what you have or agree with everything you say? (BTW, not talking about anyone specifically, especially you |

Cinematographic movies are played at 24fps (unless you only go to Imax theatres, but I really doubt it).

Just like some people can detect if a compressed song was compressed with Lame, Frauhnofer or OGG, some people may see the difference between FSAA4x and FSAA8x. But I doubt it. I think all this has been perverted. The differences do exist, that cannot be denied, but if you have to zoom-in 4 times on a still image to see the difference, I think it's just a no-difference. Has not anyone wondered why during reviews the journalists always have to zoom-in on details to show that FSAA256x is (a bit) better than FSAA2x ? -- XandreX /I'm that kind of people your parents warned you about/ |

So 30fps should be quite fine alredy. Are you disturbed while you watch movies ? If not then how in the hell can you survive 25fps (movies are in 99% encoded at 25fps)??? There might be that over 30 fps might make things more smooth and you could detect that in the long turn but for normal actions 30fps should be just fine. Mario |
