ATI 5850 Anti Aliasing issues.

I THINK my card can't use Anti Aliasing in certain games. Metro 2033 for example, runs beautifully. So does Arkham Asylum. So does Mass Effect 2.
But AVP in dx11, and Force Unleashed, both look repulsive. I've tried using different drivers and whatnot. Now that I've found the problem I've previously mentioned on this forum is apparent in more than one game, do I need to return it? Or are there more things to try and test with before returning it?
Is there a benchmark software specifically designed for testing AA?

Thanks in advance.
 
Some games simply don't have AA included anymore, its not new or AMD specific, some games get patched, some games get driver updates that recognise and force it, some games you just can't have AA. THe only game that has AA that amd can't use is Batman, and even them AMD drivers were released in days to force it anyway, and thats a game that Nvidia paid the developer to exclude AA for AMD.

Sometimes with some games renaming the .exe to ut3 or bioshock if I recall correctly can help force AA in a game that doesn't have it as standard.

90% of games i've played, infact more than that, AA works fine, some games AA just works incredibly badly due to the way the game is designed. Only, Borderlands that I can recall in recent times needed the renaming .exe method to force AA, can't recall if its been fixed or not since.
