... and played around with the doom timedemo. here is the result.

strange thing is that i get more frames with 1024*768 and 2xAA than without AA i repeated it serveral times, always the same result...

lol, ohne is ok, but mit is better
i play either on 1024 4AA or 1280 2AA. that way the performance loss is very moderate and it looks soooo nice
now i will see what a little overclocking can do

Did you discover the 4x+ AA bug in the 6800NU's?? Basically you lose 99% of your framerates at 4xAA and 1600x1200, due to a design defect in the 6800NU's only.. This doesn't effect the GT's...

Curious if you saw this, because I sure did in my testing.

no, sorry i only tested 1600*1200 with 2AA and without. if youre interested i could do it though. just thought that this wont be very playable so i left it out.

I totally disagree. I'm running Doom @ 1600 x 1200, 4xAA, 16xAF, Ultra quality settings, averaging 40- 60 FPS, time demo clocks in @ 47.9, more than playable in my book.


Edit: Great looking graph by the way! Nice work!

I thought you meant in general. Sorry.
