#720p batman arkham city plus

one thing i like to do in games if they support this, is combine MSAA and FXAA. In some games 2XMSAA does a decent job at getting rid of jaggies but in other games jaggies can still be seen where as FXAA can have move coverage. Originally posted by ATLEAGLE579:this makes sence. Thanks for the information, I'll be sure to make a more informed post next time. I could snap and upload the exact same images.

Here's a article with some direct comparison images: For me, 2x MSAA just doesn't cut the mustard, when even on 4x, it still needs supersampling forced at driver-level to back it up. The choice is really down to which you notice, or what irritates you the most - aliasing or impaired texture clarity. It'll always come down to personal preference though. Particularly when the game is performance hungry already (like AC is). I like to force MSAA with Sparse-Grid Supersampling wherever possible, so I'm not a big fan of FXAA tbh, but I'm finding when games have HQ FXAA (like AC does) it's perfectly fine.

plus shimmering on objects like lamp-posts as you move around. Whereas 2xMSAA will have edge-crawl on every power-line, fence, etc. Yes, there is slight blurring on textures with FXAA, but if you're not cranking the resolution in the first place, it's hardly noticible, particularly when a scene is in motion. To eliminate all aliasing, you either need to downsample, or force supersampling, or a combination (at a massive performance cost ofc). 2x is also quite pitiful on geometry, particularly at low resolutions, where FXAA (on high) can easily match 4xMSAA, or 8xCSAA for results at FAR less performance (which can go into other settings instead). MSAA is not only expensive, but does absolutely nothing to aliasing on transparencies and any 2D objects (like chain-link fences).
