Difference TAA-Modes T2 and T3?

Alpha-Omega · Sep 25, 2004, 07:30 AM

Hi,
These may be noob questions, sorry then

...
In the new Omega Drivers in the "Advanced 3D"-tab there are the Temporal AntiAliasing options T2 and T3. What is the difference between thos two modes? Which one offers better image quality/performance?

And another similar one:
What is the difference between the AF-Modes "Performance", "Quality" and "Forced"? How much better is the performance of the "Performance"-mode?

Thanks,
Alpha-Omega

T2 uses two alternate samples for Temporal AA. T3 uses three alternate samples for Temporal AA. IIRC the regular Catalysts use T2 when you turn on Temporal AA.

Here are the definitions for the AF modes:

Performance: Bilinear
Quality: Trilinear on the first texture stage only (TS0); the other ones use bilinear
Forced: Trilinear forced on all texture stages

Exactly.
Real good looking AF (like nVidia's) is "forced", which costs most performance, of course.
