[QUOTE="lio, post: 175506, member: 3222"] My GTX 670 also can only handle 4xFSAA with 4x DSR (but that without problems), moving to 8xFSAA slowes things to a crawl (but that seems to be a video memory problem as 4x DSR & 4x FSAA already uses ~1900mb of memory and my videocard has only 2GB), but you can easily reduce the FSAA amount due to the increased and downsampled resolution because that will automatically provide you with extra AA. Before I was running TPA with 16xFSAA, 4x Transparency AA, 16x Anisotropic and high image quality with all "cheap optimizations" turned off in the driver panel at 1920x1200. Now I went to 4x DSR, 4x FSAA, 2x Transparecy AA (the other settings remain) and it certainly looks a lot better in certain areas. And even though some TPA textures certainly are too low res to really benefit from the extra resolution it still looks better overall - especially on the newer tables with their better playfield textures. Also you can play around with the "DSR smoothness" slider right below the DSR resultions in the global settings of the driver panel (which affects the downsample filter and results in a sharper or softer image) - so far I like 25% for TPA. As rehtroboi40 said: it's not suitable for weaker hardware - as all it will do is decrease your performance while providing better image quality. If you already notice a significant slowdown in the menu you can basically exit TPA right there and try a lower setting as it will not get any better when you load a table. [/QUOTE]
