FXAA only works with OpenGL games and not Direct3D games. AMD GPUs can use MLAA on nearly all games, whereas Nvidia GPUs can use MLAA in only a very few specific games. Also, FXAA is open-source and AMD GPUs can use FXAA as well.

FXAA works on ALL dx9 games, some dx10 and 11 as we speak.

Actually, yes you are correct. I was mistaken. FXAA works with DX9 games but not many DX10 and DX11 games. Therefore, it is not by any means an all-games-encompassing anti-aliasing solution. AMD's MLAA works on far far more games!

[QUOTE="ferret-gamer"]MLAA works fine on Nvidia cards. I could have sworn we went through the exact same thing about the AA solutions in a different thread.ferret-gamer

You just don't get it, do you? I am not talking about a few specific games that happen to have the MLAA feature/option built into the game itself which works with Nvidia GPUs. I am talking about true proper GPU drivers-integrated MLAA that is not dependent on the game offering it, and instead can be forced on nearly any PC game out there! That is what AMD has and Nvidia doesn't! Once again, two great examples are Risen and Divinity 2: TDKS. Nvidia has no anti-aliasing solution at all for these games, but AMD does and it's MLAA! This is a HUGE plus for AMD GPUs and a much more substantial visual improvement than Nvidia's Physx.

FXAA>MLAA and works on all cards (nvidia and AMD) without any hit to FPS... Win for all. jedikevin2

AMD's Morphological Anti-Aliasing (MLAA) is a more useful feature than Nvidia's Physx. MLAA can be used to make nearly any game (even those that don't normally support anti-aliasing) look better. This is a big deal! Two examples of such games are Risen and Divinity 2: The Dragon Knight Saga. These are both awesome games that Nvidia has no anti-aliasing solution for. As far as I know, MLAA does not work with Nvidia GPUs. Nvidia has other forms of anti-aliasing, but none can truly be forced on to nearly any game the way that MLAA can be forced on (and no, Nvidia's FXAA is not the same).

Therefore, AMD Radeon 6000 series GPUs have a feature that truly improves the gameplay experience far more than the few particle effects that Nvidia's Physx provides. And this AMD-specific feature is called Morphological Anti-Aliasing!

may you please post a link up ill like to take a look at it.

Currently, the 6000 series of AMD GPUs scale much better in Crossfire than the 500 series of Nvidia GPUs in SLI.

For example, 6970 Tri-Crossfire gives very similar performance to 580 Tri-SLI, but the AMD solution costs approximately $400 less total (for all three GPUs).

You Nvidia fans can deny this all you want, but these are the facts.

HD 6970 = best price/performance GPU currently available.
