Just came an interesting discussion going on at AT. There seems to a big IQ issue with the Nvidia 6 and 7 series card with rendering shadows. blocky shadows and its happening across unreal engine, splinter cell, farrcry, 3dmarks and a few other games. It's present across all drivers, non-whql, whql and leaked and across all IQ settings.

Posting it here so Nv 7 series and 6 series owners can post their screenies and verify.

Post some screenies taken from the other threads. Marking the anomalies with red so that people know where to look.



6600GT 4x aa 16x af. Forceware drivers 77.77



6800GT 4x aa 8x af. Forceware drivers 78.01



BFG 7800GTX OC 1600x1200, 4xAA Supersampling, 16xAF FW v78.01





x850xt agp (stock) catalyst 5.7 1280x1024 4aa/8af all on high



1280x1024 4aa/8af all on very high



ATi 9700 Pro



Same issue in ut 2004 with Nv cards



IIRC the shimmering issue that was hyped much was also not solved. And now this. Calling all ATi and Nv card owners to post their screenies. :)
 
Yup, have read this earlier.

I havent noticed these Blobby Shadows on my x800 xl on UT2004 but noticed them on my friends 6600 GT.
 
[sarcasm]lol, i think now the game runs better and gives more fps? who cares about shadows anyways? [/sarcasm]

screenies to follow soon...
 
I am myself trying to find solution to this problem for ages.

Havent found it yet.

Problem exsisted with my 6800 and exsists with 6600GT. Will post some pics soon.
 
it does not.

And 81.33 breaks more stuff. it cannot play source games. PC just reboots for me and many others with 8x.xx which trying to play source games.

look at this crap.

 
Lol. That means both Companies have their ups and downs.

Depends on personaly choice between Image Quality (ATi) or Higher FPS (nVidia)...

Also, the 8*.** are in Beta right now, expect crashes in games and all that man. Dont blame nVidia so soon even.
 
well when i am paying for something, i wudnt want to compromise on either of the two, and for that, idd pick Ati considering its past products, this ofcource can be a driver issue but ill doubt it coz they wudnt want to loose outon the fps that an equivalent Ati card offers.. hell that 9700 screeni looks better than the 7800
 
well, I am paying for performance, to put is as simple as i can, and i wudnt want to loose out on that one by being a fanboy some certain x manufacturer, i'll choose a product that offer best bang for buck anyday..
 
^^ Whatever, just coz ur a AMD fan doesnt mean you have to abuse intel.

Plus that is Off Topic, and your taking me OT too.

My Pentium D pwns jor 3000+
 
Isnt this turning into a Hate nVidia thread? :|

Just a thought...
