In the first level, I experience some anomalies like for ex, seeing a complete river behind a rock or smth like that. Also Lara dissapear behind the water (not at all).. Have an HD 7950 Turbo Sapphire 3 gb and that's annoying.. It just happen with SSAAx4. No anomalies in other case (FXAA).

Second thing, playing with that cfg (ultimate settings), have 25 fps avg. Low, but playable, using Overdrive just for setting the fan in 50% (don't doing that the vga lates a lot to reach that speed and temperature don't stay in 72-75º, it goes nearly 80º and more..). Overdrive specs are:
Memory clock: 1250Mhz
Energy: 0%
GPU clock: 925 Mhz.
Manual speed fan: 55%

I'm fxcking noob in overclocking and those things (read smth about people not recomending overdrive too) so.. sorry.

Solution


SSAA is extremely computationally expensive. FXAA on the other hand is not. FXAA doesn't look quite as nice, but the difference is not very noticeable. I'm playing the game right now on my dual 7970s @ 2560x1600. I have everything maxed out except for AA which I have set to FXAA, the game runs butter smooth with no anomalies.
