Do you enable AA and AF?

Ok, I'm just curious how many people here utilize AntiAliasing and Anisotropic Filtering on their games.

Personally, I can't live without it. I'll enable full 8xAA and 16xAF even if I lag sometimes, LOL

unless i am playing doom 3 or quake 4 i use 4x and 8x aa and af. I love it. However my 9800pro doesnt let me get much above thatbefore dying in low fps

If I CAN enable AA and AF, I definitely will. Sometimes, I sacrifice the AA and AF for upping the resolution though.

I never did before 'cause I didn't have a powerfull enough card. 4 days ago I got my 6800LE ,opened the pipes, OC'd , got like 5700+ in 3dmark05. now I did anable both AA and AF in all the games I have and can finallly enjoy their benefits. the games just look awsome with them!

I have a 6200, what do you think?

Ok, it's more like a 6600 since its memory is 128-bit, has 256MB of it, and has been overclocked form 300/500 to 460/560, but it still counts as a 6200 right?

Actually, I am able to use 2xAA on DOOM3 at 800x600. Gotta love nVidia's OpenGL drivers.

In a way i think it is kind of a waste of money if you dont. if you are paying 200+ $$ just to get frame rate up, i think its a waste of money. You at least have to set it to 2x or something. However on the other hand more fps = more frags. I think it should be equal, however that is hard to accomplish.

Playing on CAL I usually have everything turned off while competing. I sometimes turn it on to mess around a little but that is rare. If I do have time to play it's either practicing or in a match so everything is off or set to low.

I run 1600x1200 with 8xAF and no AA.

I will turn on AA in older games if supported by the game options, however it always stays at "application preference".

Yes but when I do I use only the lowest levels! My current graphics card cant handle high end graphics.
