My bro just got COD2 for his PC. He has a X800 Pro installed. COD2 is a performance hog.
For it to be playable on his system, I had to settle for 800x600 with 2xAA using DX9 with Low Dynamic Lights, Textures on auto and everything else off. I could've done 1024x768 with DX7, and DX7 doesn't look too bad, but it eliminates all shadows and lighting. And the lighting makes it look that much better.
Anyway, While trying to find out the best settings, I notice that the filtering was worse on the X800 Pro than with High Quality driver settings on the 7800GT (well, obviously). Then I started to think about the X1800, if it was also like this. They improved the AF, but I wonder if they improved just the Filtering part. Anyone know? Anyone care about filtering anymore? Reviewers don't seem to give a crap. Actually, I didn't read much of those reviews since I was too excited, but I haven't even heard it in the forums.
