Hi,
I have the NVidia 8800GTS 640Mb.

I know what is Anti-aliasing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-aliasing) and what is Anisotropic filtering (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisotropic_filtering).

I wanted to know how high can I set them? And where do I actually do it?
Someone here on the forum said something about "nhancer"... what is it?

Can you set the light on this subject for me? or direct me to a link that will help me understand it...

Thanks
Gil

You can set it as high as you want(or the game allows). It really depends on your hardware.

Personally, I wouldn't want good AA and AF, but having a slideshow.

AF makes negligable performance differences, so enable it ingame or using the nvidia control panel (or a 3rd party program) unless you are really struggling for FPS. AA on the other hand, is not so performance friendly. I wouldn't set it beyond 4X in most cases.
