I use Catalyst drivers yes,and used to have AF enabled in SH3,but now I have it set to application controlled.Some games can have problems if you force certain effects and they arent properly supported,and Sh3 is possibly such a game.I also enable Catalyst A.I and set it to standard,this optimizes graphics for you without any noticable loss to quality or performance.Another option I enable is one called 'geometry instancing' ,this allows the video card buffers to render repetitive objects such as trees or grass for example a lot quicker by using a default model and replicating it where needed instead of rendering 100s of different trees or grasses causing a huge strain on available video memory.Would you really notice the difference?on a tree or patch of grass I mean.
NOTE - my video card is an ageing ATI X800 Pro 256MB
4 GB system RAM
