ATI/AMD's new Morphological Anti-aliasing

Would this work on GTA4??

I am saddened by my 4870's inability to use this. Come on, die already so I can get a DX11 replacement.

But does this AA work with all games on the 6800's?

i guess its also dependant on driver updates

but what doesnt work on 5800 should also not work on 6800 series.

like all driver updates its prone to update based fixes.

Can this sort of stuff be applied to consoles as well? I mean not as a user option but more like a software update that enables this sort of technology allowing a little more to be squeezed from them

I read somewhere that PS3 will possibly be adding it first then followed by 360.

GTA 4 with AA at last!!!!

I read somewhere that it indeed does work with GTa4.

God, I want an ATI card again ( I mean AMD!)

Well it's just that this is an ATI tech. PS3 contains an Nvidia chip and the 360 contains an ATI chip... I'm guessing that Nvidia can easily replicate this tech so perhaps it may appear on both?

Please Nvidia give us this AA feature!!!

How do I get this working with my Crossfire 5870's.

Looks like an incredible feature !

If this is as good as it first appears (and being cynical, my view is that few things are) then it's an absolutely market stealer for AMD. Is there any way of activating this on a 5770?

Those SC2 results are really impressive. It will be really interesting to see where ATI go with this technology. Hopefully it will be released for the 5series realy soon. It will be great for the type of games that with 4xAA in single player you get about 40fps but when playing multiplayer you can enable morphological AA and get that extra fps you need without bad jaggies.

now that looks very nice, if this works in GTA, well how nice that will be.
it looks like AMD have really pulled their socks up and made us all happy.

ViRuS2k · 23 Oct 2010 at 18:24

Well there yo go guys, proof is in the pudding,

will update main post once more images are done so guys get adding images

to show the effectiveness of this new technology

Got bad company 2 for some pics?

Neat, if that makes GTA4 a little less ghastly I'm all for it. Not that I even play GTA4 that much now

arc@css · 23 Oct 2010 at 18:44

Hats off to the egg heads at AMD. I'm impressed. The IQ looks pretty good, varies from game to game of course but still, less apparent jaggies for virtually zero / zero performance hit.

Looks at 4870x2 and shakes head.

Not quite sure why everyone's so happy about using it for GTA4, that game was an appalling console port and the graphics were mediocre at best. Yes you can install mods and what not, but it's a bit too little, too late.

^^^
Maybe because GTA4 is a game they actually like to play despite it's shortcomings?
