Shimmering issue
this makes me SERIOUSLY re-consider my plans to get a 6800GT (or NV45/PciE for that matter). There seems to be a bug with Nvidias AF... (???) and some videos i saw (see some of the threads above) look HORRIBLE.
I dont think i wanna spend $500 for a card and then have horribe jaggies in games.....
Edit:
I am/was STRONGLY leaning toward a 6800GT (as a former ATI user, 8500 and now a 9800Pro), but now i start thinking...the only benefit of the 6800 is nice performance in Doom 3, so..ehrm..ok...Doom 3.... yay.... ok...
Most other games are D3D and the ATI cards perform better there and image quality seems to be better with ATI anyways....if Nvidia has such stupid bugs (WHICH STILL HAS TO BE INVESTIGATED IN)....well......i think i might rather get a X800 and live with a few FPS less in Doom3...and have more joy with the all the other games....... ?
Option 2)
Wait even LONGER for ATI R480 coming out ("end of the year") and PRAY that it has PS3.0 support.... i am waiting so long for all that stuff (Nforce 4, NV45)...i almost dont care anymore if its a month more or less...
