      • I'm just wondering how well the parhelia works with Neverwinter Nights. This is my favorite game and my Radeon 8500 dosen't have enough horsepower to run it at the quality that I want. Anyone tried it on this game yet.

        • Yeah, I noticed the jaggies in the shot too, that and he didn't have shadows turned on (but we won't get into that again ). But I like what I see. Was the game actually playable at 1600x1200 with 16xFAA?? And does adding anistropic filtering into all of this with 16xFAA slow it down too much at that resolution? And did you have viewing distance turned to the max? From the 3rd and 4th shots I'd have to say the viewing distance is at its medium setting...

                    • iampedro. all of that you just quoted in over a month and a half old. Essentially worth nothing. Also they didn't test with eyecandy/res cranked up ie what will cause all the other cards to choke and stutter.
