Not to warm on Surround gaming. D'oh!
SSAA on Macs, but not Winel, Hmmmmm interesting.
More AA to come, I wonder if Fragment will be in that list, the mention of "16X" implies that he is aware of the fragment AA, but doesn't like the results (there is the occasional no AA under certain circumstances) despite the performance gains.

Good read, thanks for the link.

I find it interesting that the ATI guy said the exact same thing about .09 as did the Intel engineer a while back. The move to .13 had a few bumps, but it seems this .09 might really be cuasing some grief. (Although I heard that ATI's next card after R420 was going to be .11. Don't remember where I read it...... could just be a rumor.)

Actually that was probably me. I linked to Xbit's article about it a while back, and then there was a more recent statement that the R450 would likely go that route.

But yes, it's not PROVEN fact, YET!
