Is my friend lying?

Why doesn't somebody set it to only use 2 cores in the task manager and see how detrimental it is?

I figured i would do the same bit as before @1920x1200 full ultra settings without the 2xaa as it really makes no difference to the visuals. The results were pretty good.

Frames : 2715
Time (ms) : 60000
Min : 36
Max : 50
Avg : 45.25

So by taking the 2xaa away i gained 10 fps on the average. As i said above and has been said in reviews using 2xaa makes no difference to the visuals but makes a big difference in your fps.

I done a run through the same level with my card overclocked to 1000 core 1150 mem.

Frames : 2926
Time (ms) : 60000
Min : 45
Max : 54
Avg : 48.76

I gained 3.5 fps on my average which is not bad but my minimum shot up by 9 fps.

the x2 and x4 can make a decent difference fps wise .

i found having texutures to ultra is same as having x2 aa

bit different look.

i can tell with x2 aa on though so i take the hit .
