I read about some new AA on Guru3D and a lot of people were really talking it up and saying it was amazing, they were using registry tweaks to get this new AA called

Unfortunately, I'd have to say these new drivers have made little to no change at all in my visual quality and performance... :(

I installed the ATi cat 4.7's the other day and was very disapointed! My performance went down considerably >:( It was probably a corrupt install or something :-/

Anyway, I installed the Omega 4.7 alternative this morning to see if that would make a difference (first time omega'er) and I am stunned! What have I been missing :o Now the old 9800XT is smoother then ever! No sign of the temporal AA though, but I ain't goin' back to ATi drivers now!

I have been a long time Omega user and I have to say, they really do the trick.

I found the TAA switch. It was a separate program within the Programs/Omega menu.


I did switch to the Omega drivers. Didn't notice any improvement. I tinkered with the overclocking, still, no improvement. Any tweak tips?
