On the other hand for games that are no longer supported in that regard you have to decide on staying with older hardware and drivers or just living with visually poorer graphics and anomolies.

Eventually, in five years a state of the art PC will probably not be able to display SH3 or IL-2 in an acceptable manner. My theory anyway!
Hi Wilcke,

Yes, I agree. But SH3 and mainly SH4 aren't yet old games and nvidia runs well - the problem is the image quality (isn't a compatibility problem) that isn't at same level of the ATI cards out of the box. You need a 3rd part tweak to activate the SSAA - at expense of huge FPS hit - so, what Nvidia is hidden from the consumers? A big AA cheat to show more FPS on the hardware bench sites??? This is a question that don't want to go from my mind...:hmm:

Anyhow, for now, after this tweak I'm happy with it.
