In the end, NVIDIA clearly takes the crown for best filtering quality. Here's an overview of how the candidates perform in this mode:



Despite the fact that the GeForce 4 offers better filtering, it still delivers higher frame rates with anisotropic filtering than the Parhelia does without filtering. Thus, NVIDIA can hold its ground against the Parhelia with regard to quality as well as performance.
