AquaMark3 Anisotropic Filtering Performance - No
AA |
|
Under water performance metrics |
|
We won't comment
too much on each of the test runs we did but rather let the
numbers do the talking and provide some quick quantitative
analysis after each round of testing.
In these tests, we set AA to
zero and adjusted Aniso Filtering accordingly. All
tests above were run at 1024X768 with the "Very High
Quality" setting in the benchmark. The first thing to
note here is that NVIDIA's new Detonator 51.75 drivers,
provide a solid boost of about 5 - 10%, for Anisotropic
Filtering in AquaMark3, versus the Detonator 45.23 drivers.
The question is, is it at the expense of image quality?
Then there is the Radeon 9800 Pro, coming in neck and neck
with the GeForce FX card, with only 1 - 3% delta depending
on the setting. The Radeon 9800 Pro actually beats out
the GeForce FX 5900U by about that same margin, with the
current WHQL 45.23 Detonators.
