AFAIK ATI is better for DW since it has dithering in 16 bit mode and DW only runs in 16 bit mode. I use nVidia for years so I don't know which ATI cards exactly have it, but some guys with ATI posted screenshots here and they looked 10 times better then what recent nVidias can do. |
This was true up until the last generation of dx 9 cards.
All dx 10 ati cards suffer the same fate as nvidia ones, they don't have anymore the hardware for dithering so 16 bit games are rendered very very badly.
There is a thread in the rage3d forums where people can intervene asking the driver team to implement a 16-32 bit texture translation on the fly so that 16 bit games are rendered with 32 bit textures.
Its the only way to have a nice rendered 16 bit game with dx 10 class hardware.
The more people ask for this, the greater the probability that it will be implemented in the drivers.
