If you were able to run on Super Sample without too much FPS drop you should use it at least when taking important screenshots.

I run PR at max settings at 1920x1080. Hold on, I took some screens last night for comparison, I'll post em up in a bit.

Here they are, "BF2 Settings" means 8x AA and 16x Anisotropic Filtering set in BF2, type of sampling was set in CCC:
24x Super Sample AA + 16x Anisotropic Filtering | Set 2
BF2 Settings - Super Sample AA | Set 2
BF2 Settings - Multi Sample AA | Set 2

The sample rate didn't seem to make a difference in quality or framerate. The type of sampling however has noticeable differences between Multi Sample AA, Adaptive Multi Sample AA, and Super Sample AA. I use Adaptive Multi Sample currently for a nice balance between quality and performance and I chose to let BF2 handle the sample rate since I didn't notice any difference. I did see a large difference in texture quality on the ground and soldiers' clothing between 16x Anisotropic Filtering through CCC and the same rate through BF2. I've decided to override BF2's AF through CCC because I didn't notice a difference between framerate but CCC forced 16x AF looks much nicer than BF2's.

what would you guys say is the best Anti Aliasing setting (getting rid of jaggies) that looks sharp but also doesnt drop your fps to hard. Keep in mind i ask this question to people who only accept good quality, as i have a fairly decent rig and play with everything high and AF 16*

My only experience sofar is using 4* ingame bf2 native anti aliasing, i did not see a difference compared to 8* just a massive fps drop.

My ati 6970 has so many options like adaptive aa , super aa , etcetera i simply cant figure out which one is best quality and stil allows me to maintain a decent framerate.

Which setting you guys use ? Lets also maybe compare screenshots to determine what looks best. Ill have a mutrah city screenshot and a screenshot of a map with a lot of undergrowth, yamalia really kills my rig with all the gras when sniping/zooming/binos
