Only AA available is FXAA [Solved]

Post by Jaga_Telesin »

The only AA available in my Graphics Settings area is FXAA. All other AA modes show: "not supported on this hardware"

On W10 Professional 64bit. Nvidia GTX 1060 3GB, driver 411.70. Using triple-monitor setup in Surround mode so there's only one to render to. Tested fullscreen, windowed, and borderless windowed modes - all have the same result. Visually and from a performance standpoint, the game is otherwise fine.

Update: Re-tested with driver version 417.01, same result.

Hi Jaga, it is because you have a 3GB 1060. All other AA modes are disabled for cards with 3GB or less VRAM. :)

That figures, but makes total sense. I guess that 2080ti can't get here fast enough then. :D

Thank you for taking time to answer Tycow, it is appreciated on this busy day.

Unless it's something special past my 1070 if I use any of the other options outside of FXAA I get half the fps.

Probably be okay - ordered directly from Nvidia themselves. Either way I have a fallback card (what I'm running on now). Looking forward to SSAA 2x when it's installed and they're re-enabled.

That's pretty expected right now. MSAA does okay at lower settings, SSAA really hits cards hard unless it's a TI edition. I'm surprised that FXAA High doesn't blur everything beyond belief - it's not half bad. At higher resolutions Medium or Low FXAA does well with little performance hit.
