mfaa and sli (fast sync side note)

[jjohnthedon1]

hey guys, so i have heard that mfaa x2 looks as good as msaa x4 but only cost the same amount of performance as msaax2.
so basically double the anti aliasing for the same price. 

 

there is no option for this when sli is enabled, but there is a option for it in nvdia inspector when sli is enabled.
has anyone with sli tried to force it to work ? if so what were your results and how do you know that is definatly working ?

 

are there only specific games that it work on or does it work on any game that has anti aliasing? or does it work with anygame that uses msaa style aliasing 

 

also if you disable aliasing in game and force msaa through the driver will this be mfaa with it inabled through the controll panle ?

sorry i no this is a lot of questions

also i can confirm that with sli and fast sync enabled in nvdia inspector it just enables vsync, one time i loaded into overwatch and it was uncapped fps but the tearing was still there also.

 

thanks guys

MFAA as far as I know is disabled when you have SLI on. If NVIDIA hasn't added support yet, they most likely never will. The only explanation I can think of is MFAA requires the last frame, and while the master card gets everyone's frames, the slave cards won't, so MFAA can't do its magic.

MFAA supposedly works on any game.

You need to explicitly enable MFAA. It's a separate option.
