OH!Ahhhhh! yah....got ..me.........ahh ah hhh ah (drops dead on floor)There. you win!You go girl! :)

You two are a really entertaining read. Life is too short. I agree with Bobby on this one. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Although, I can see Paul's point if he works with terrain stuff all the time. One can tend to be a bit overly critical. BTW; I said I fixed my tree twinkles with a single click on the mipmap level. Results were astounding. Twinkle gone, terrain still looked awesome. Made me happy!! FS2k2 has never been so gorgeous. I just hope FS2k4 is as good as FS2k2.

MG,>You two are a really entertaining read. Yes,Since you've joined us we can be the three stooges! I'll be Moe and who do you want to be?No, really I'm Dezzy and shes Lucy! :)Sorry, Sorry. >I agree with Bobby on this one. Beauty is in the eyes of the>beholder. Right, It's your card and so having to turn the graphics quality down is "Beauty in the eyes of the beholder" instead of a graphics glitch. :-roll :)Terrain still looked awesome. Made me happy!! FS2k2>has never been so gorgeous. I just hope FS2k4 is as good as>FS2k2. Thats Great MG, I am sure you will enjoy FS2k4 as much as anyone, except me! :)Anyway I look forward to testing out both the 9800P and 5900Ultra as soon as the shop allows me.Take Care.

Paul,When and if ATi bring out a card that AA's properly in FS, please let us know. I'll be upgrading maybe towards the end of the year, mainly because I don't think there is anything particularly captivating at present that compells me to turf the Ti 4200. I wouldn't mind buying an ATi, but to my eyes the poorer quality AA has been a concern of mine for some time.

_______________________________________When and if ATi bring out a card that AA's properly in FS_______________________________________Jon; ATI's AA & AF is much better than Nvidia's in FS. Don't know where you got that notion.Also, I've been waiting for the new 3dMark results. After Nvidia's hack was fixed:http://www.x-plane.org/users/mgdbottled/Hack.gif

Don't>know where you got that notion.Its all very black and white Mg and it was made pretty clear in the previous post so that there are no "notions" only facts (unless we should all pretend).>Also, I've been waiting for the new 3dMark results. After>Nvidia's hack was fixed:Dean McCarron of Mercury Research said it best:"benchmark results are valuable for graphics chip makers if they want to claim general bragging rights for the fastest chip. But the results hold little sway with the hard-core PC game players who make up the bulk of the customer base for high-end graphics chips." "What happens is that in the gamer market, the buyers are fairly sophisticated," McCarron said. "They're looking at >real-world:)
