Yeah AA is a must. It's a pity it's software drivin though, as it takes more data crunching that way. |
all AA is software driven... you dont jsut throw in a GPU and say "give me AA now!" and it magically put AA in all your games...
|
Ummmm, I've never heard of software driven AA being used in games, not genuine stuff anyway (that blur rubbish is not AA).
You actually CAN just "throw in a GPU" and say "give me AA now!" 
Have you not looked in the driver properties for any nvidiaati card made in the last 6-7 years?
|
drivers = software =P
|
I mean the actual work is being done on the GPU and not the CPU as the term "software" implies, or it is...So 
For example, you get "software rendering" for old games on a computer, this means all the work is done on the CPU (as i'm sure you know)...Same with sound cards, there's "onboard sound" on lots of motherboards, this is all handled mostly handled in "software" whears something like a Creative X-Fi is "hardware accelerated"...etc.

Well some games now a days, and older games, dont support AA natively so you have to force it using your driver's software.
