are you use 4xMSAA instead of FXAA when Playing BF3 in your system?

I used FXAA with my GTX 580, then switched to MSAA when I got the 680. So now I use just 4x MSAA. I thought FXAA looked fine though, at least on Medium.

You could try it yourself. If you don't see a difference, what is the point of using it then? wink.gif

My question is, why this could happen? I still don't understand the difference between FXAA on NCP and 4xMSAA on BF3??? Can anybody else in here give me an explanation about this?
my GPU is MSI GTX 670 Power Edition OC.
Thanks
Shar


Can u take a SS of your NCP of the FXAA for BF3! Last time I checked you can't enable. Are you enabling it in the general list for everything? is it actually FXAA or is it the antialasing post?

If it couldn't be enabled, maybe the Nvidia Panel says it's enabled but game doesn't use that option? Just a thought, I don't any experience with the game and little experience with the control panel. That would explain the FPS increment, though.

I enable FXAA on Global settings, not Program Settings, and I enable "it" again on BF3 Settings....where the other people says that I'm running FXAA (on NCP) + FXAA (Anti-Aliasing Post) (on BF3 Settings).

the picture will be coming soon, because I was turn off my PC, and switch to laptop now....biggrin.gif

Just use an SMAA injector if you truly want to keep those frames. You get fxaa without the blurring of textures.

can you tell me, how can I get that feature? or where I can download the software, maybe?

no, I just want to know more about FXAA feature, I think, even I set up the graphics into max settings,,, I can get very playable Framerate (at least 65-90 FPS) depends of the moment.

Unless you've a 120Hz monitor, the framerate drop that you're having doesn't matter.
