Tiger Woods Out...Until August!

| | (Post a comment) » Removed: FSAA Comparison: V5500/ GF2If you're looking for our first FSAA comparison article, we've decided to yank it from the site. After a good deal of internal discussion today, we decided on this course of action because the protocols used in the first article were not the best possible way to base a comparison. As mentioned before, we're working on a new comparison test involving two identically configured machines, sitting side by side.
FSAA is a very complex topic, and it's certainly a feature that cannot be characterized, measured, or compared by any traditional means. Because of that, we're going to handle the new article with even more care and attention than anything we've ever done before. FiringSquad is committed to providing the highest quality content. We're not going to be satisfied with anything less than our best possible effort. |  Previous news article | Back to main news | Next news article  |

What is everyone's obsession with FSAA????
I know what they say, that once I've seen it realtime, I could never
go back, that it looks so much better, and it blows you away, but SO
WHAT??? One year ago, basically NO ONE was using FSAA, and we were
happy. The aliasing might have been annoying, but not as critical
as so many people make it sound like. It's an excellent feature,
people but not critical or required!
On the other hand, I think 3Dfx has got a winner here with its
V5500, one that's better than GeForce2, but I'm not sure which one
will sell better. Also, there's no way that that V5500 will fit in
my case! The HDD is too close to the AGP slot. I'm sure that's the
case with at least a few others.

No, Its about the same quality as V5's FSAA 2x but it only works
in open gl games. V5's FSAA is in hardware so even though theres a
big performace hit, it is
nowhere near as much as the Nvidia's software hack,
which is really a software hack used by 3dfx 4 years ago with V1.
The Best FSAA is 4x and only V5 has that.
And finally, V5's FSAA WORKS IN ALL GAMES PERIOD.
So no, Nvidias FSAA can't compete.

Does anyone think Nvidia's software based FSAA will ever be able to
compete with the Voodoo4/5 hardware based solution?

Tomshardware.com has a comparison beteen the Elsa, Asus, and
Leadtek, but not the Hercules. The Leadtek's heat sink is twice as
big as the others, which led to better overclocking.
At default speeds, the cards were all identical.
