Hi all,

Since I've had my new rig just a couple of months ago, I am going through Need For Speed: Most Wanted again, this time with full eye candy.

However, I have bad FPS when I use AA.

Without AA and all other settings maxed, 16x AF @ 1280x1024 I get 50-60 FPS, which runs great.

When I turn on AA up one notch, it slows down to under 30FPS, and then to 20FPS with full AA.

Why am I getting suck a large FPS hit with AA? Its a 2005 game, so nothing too demanding....

Are you running XP or Vista?

I'm pretty sure NFS:MW ran like crap on Vista for some rigs... If you're running on XP... then I don't know what to say, that is a pretty big drop in FPS...

Yeah I am running on XP SP2.

I am using Catalyst 7.11 drivers. I don't have any of this Adaptive AA enabled in CCC or anything. Pretty basic CCC settings.

I was using 7.10 drivers too, with no difference, in fact worse performance.
