Hello everyone,

I know theres plenty of topics in regards to this all over the net, but none that really answer my direct question. I would like to know if it is worth keeping completely off for the perfomance boost. Or if I should at least put it to Multisampling for less aliasing on transparent textures, ie. fences,etc. I don't really see an interest in putting it on if its really only for the spaces between fences etc.... If I'm even understand that correctly. Do you the think the perfomance differences from having it "Off" to "Multisampling" would be worth it. Please let me know whenever possible

Thank you in advance

*P.S* I'm using a GTX 280 FTW. If that has any real value in this question. Thanks again

Cheers

The performance hit depends on the resolution you're running. Check your fps with AA on and off. If you're over 60 fps with it on, leave it on.
