 Antialiasing settings: Use this slider by dragging it to set the degree of
antialiasing to be used in Direct3D and OpenGL applications. Antialiasing is
a technique used to minimize the "stairstep" effect sometimes seen along the
edges of 3D objects. Your selection can range from turning antialiasing
completely off to selecting the maximum amount possible for a particular
application.
NOTE: Availability of options described in this section may depend on the
NVIDIA GPU you are using.
Off: This option will disable antialiasing in 3D applications. Select this option
if you require maximum performance in your applications.
2x: This option will enable antialiasing using the 2x mode. It offers improved
image quality and high performance in 3D applications.
2xQ: This option enables a patented antialiasing technique available in the
GeForce GPU family. 2xQ antialiasing offers the quality of the slower, 4x
antialiasing mode at nearly the performance of the faster, 2x mode.
4x: This option will enable antialiasing using the 4x mode. It offers the higher
image quality at the expense of some performance in 3D applications.
6x: This option enables antialiasing using the 6x mode. It offers higher image
quality than 4x mode. This setting affects only Direct3D applications.
8x: This option will enable antialiasing using the 8x mode. It offers higher
image quality than 6x mode for Direct3D applications and 4x mode for
OpenGL applications.
 Anisotropic filtering: Use this slider by dragging it to set the degree of
anisotropic filtering for improved image quality. Enabling this option
improves image quality at the cost of performance.
NOTE: Availability of options described in this section may depend on the
NVIDIA GPU you are using.
Off: Disables anisotropic filtering.
2x: Results in improved image quality at the cost of performance.
4x: Results in improved image quality at the cost of performance.
8x: Results in best image quality.
