Source: PCPerspectiveIn an effort to distinguish the differences in Anisotropic Filtering quality between the GeForce 6800 series and the Radeon X800 cards, we utilized Fraps to capture screenshots within the game FarCry. Using the "Archive" level, we captured shots just as the character spawned at the beginning of the map. In doing so, we were able to ensure that each image would be in the exact same location and that each shot would illustrate the same scenario. This particular scene was selected because there are some excellent areas of focus for realizing the benefits of AF. Whether it be the bulge on the ceiling or the track on the floor leading up to the door, you can clearly see how the image quality improves once AF is enabled and progressively raised.
