foxx r u goin to update this topic??

Anti Aliasing and Anisotropic filtering are things used to smooth the image.  Basicly they just make the graphics look smoother, but also hurt performance.  That is a good card, but not having at least 8 pipelines is hurting its performance..It should be default set to application based...so a game will turn it on if u can use it.

I already explained this to you my nigga

I dont want to post benchmarks of the new cards really yet...I prob will end up doing it. It is so confrentational right now lol they are so close...Im starting to think the 6800Ultra is the best though, especially since there is talk bout the x800xt pe being cancled...if it isnt already.

Because the ati dx9 cards then ati..like 9800 and 5900 series. I would still take the 5900XT over the 9600XT though...

Aight this should be in hardware world and here...more people will see it in hardware world I think...cant you put it in both..? If not, I think it would be better placed in Hardware.

Or move all guides here to amke it a common thing to say "go to teh guide section" instead of like "look in teh top of hardware world, or maybe it';s software, or no look in the guides section...hell jsut check them all" lol.
