MLAA/FXAA/SMAA honestly all look the same to me. Barely preferable to no AA. 4XMSAA should be the gold standard and every game should support it imo. Especially on PC where we have the horsepower.

SSAA blends everything too. It applies AA to everything on the screen.

8xMSAA + AAA (AAA removes jaggies from transparency texture like fences.)

8xSSAA

SSAA does that on some games yes. What SSAA does is render the game at a much higher resolution and drops it down. Normally it looks amazing and hits perf too hard to even use.

Aliasing isn't necessarily related to the resolution, or pixel density of the panel.

+1

And once I get in to a good game of TF2 or BC2, I don't even notice the graphics anyway.

Then again my first big online shooter game was Star Siege and it's amazing graphics

Are you sure about resolution? I notice heavy aliasing at low resolutions in some games.

If you play your games at native resolution then AA is just icing on the cake imo. I hate FXAA and would rather have no AA then FXAA, it just blurs the image to much.

[TPU]NVIDIA Introducing a New Anti-Aliasing Algorithm with Kepler?

Bought the 1st one un-lit to see what I thought of Mech Keyboards after seeing all the nerds rave about them here in OCN. Wow! OK I get it now. You do gain an accuracy because the mind knows when...

Also, the cooling block was pretty flat. I'm a machinist on occasion and "pretty flat" isn't easy. I wet sand CPUs and coolers on glass; this cooler took 1/4 of the time the i7-2600k required to...

I wrote the initial info for this case, so that's pretty much my review. Compared to the TT Command Snow I just evaluated, if THIS case was ATX sized, I would rather buy this case than the TT...

Overall, I'd recommend passing on buying this unless you're at the store and it's the cheapest one you like. I'm more impressed by the quality of the generic Apex TX521 that Tiger Direct likes to...

Picked these up for my TRON Legacy theme build. Got the optional light bar upgrade kit(s). Note, for a quad channel package you will need two light bar kits as each covers two sticks. No issues...
