At what resolution does everyone play there games at, and do you turn on FSAA and AF?

At what resolution does everyone play there games at, and do you turn on FSAA and AF (Say what settings you set them on) ? Wondering everyone's opinion on resolutions, FSAA, and AF?

Thanks.

16x AF (that's max in ATI land), and 2xAA.

Farmer_BOB what resolution ? And do you play all your games with 16 AF and 2x FSAA on ?

I play all games @ 1024*768 32-bit. With ATI cards, maxing out the AF all the way doesn't give it a big performance hit. Since I'm using an 800mhz p3, I don't always enable AA. But, since I play at high resolutions, it's not a big difference.

I play every game at 1024x768@32-bit color. The only game that's fast enough to be played at 4X FSAA and 8X AF is Half-Life and the game has textures problems when enabled . I can turn on Quincunx to fix the texture problem but everything becomes blurry .

Generally, I run 1152 32bit max AF.

Only game i use FSAA in is NFS Porsche.

old games are 1024x
new are 800x600 or below

no fsaa or anything.

I also have NFS porshe, and I know it's a very processor intensive game. So my question is, does it run perfect with your current rig?

NFS appears smoove as silk to my eyes, but when I run fraps I see that I am getting 60-30fps. These frame rates would be nasty in a FPS, but in a racing game they aren't a problem.

1152x864 32-bit when the game allows it.

usually just stick with trilinear filtering, unless a game looks significantly better with Aniso filtering (like Morrowind), in which case i use level 4 (32-tap).

in all honesty, though, Omega's NVIDIA drivers often deliver nearly the same image quality as 32-tap anisotropic filtering, without nearly as much performance hit. however, there's some games where the increased LOD settings make the game look like **** (like the Phantasy Star Online demo). i got tired of dealing with it (and i hate Nview), so i just went back to the 23.11 detonators.

(celeron @1330mhz, GF3-ti200 @226/526)

I currently play at 1024x768@32bit with Quincunix AA and 8x AF. When I get a new monitor though I'll probably play at 1280x960, with the same settings

i run 1024x768 on everything, no AF or AA, unless it's a racing game, then i crank the AA to 4x
