My gaming rig]
Intel Core i7-870 overclocked to 4ghz
Nvidia Geforce GTX 275
OK.Now on my rig mafia 2 runs really well with all sliders maxed out except for ambient occlusion.Now the wierd thing is that in the game when ambient occlusion is turned off I get a solid 60 fps with some dips to 50.However as soon as I activate ambient occlusion my fps dips to 40 and makes the game unplayable and I am not noticing any visual difference in the game.Even in just cause 2 when I put SSAO on high my fps gets cut in half.It seems as if in these games Ambient oclusion has a more fps hit than anti aliasing.Now what does this feature do in mafia 2 and just cause 2 because I am not noticing any visual difference at all?
