    Yeah , your right..

    The only thing about the 4.4's with me is, it dosnt like running perfect mode in IL2-FB.
    I get about 9 FPS as apposed to 25-30 with the Cat 4.2's.

    But TBH, ive been quite happy in excellent mode with about 70 FPS

    Will this new driver have proper support for temporal AA on the Rx3x0 cores?

    Search on google for it - Hexus news postings mentioned it too.

    Basically you need a high framerate and vsync on. It uses more that one sampling method (either two or three) and switches between them per frame. This doubles or triples the apparant antialiasing factor. As it's based on multiple frames, it can't be represented by screenshots, so guaging it is hard.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    That explanation was hard to understand.

    Temporal AA uses different AA sampling methods (which produce slightly different results) and then alternates them from frame to frame. The visual effect left to your eye should be a more perfect edge. kind of averaging the different AA images in your head (almost how different colors are displayed on some flat panels, by alternating 2 colors on each side of the desired color)

    a similar method is used with PAL tv signals.. as the signal is never perfect, on every line somethings inverted ( i forget what), and any errors on one line will cancel out errors from the next line, though iirc works best if your watching from a distance...

    back ot, has anyone tryed these yet?
