    So what are folks using for OC'ing the 6990 and its ilk? I notice some folks running higher numbers than the AMD Overdrive is capable of registering. I am just curious as to what utility is preferred among ATI users. Ive been an NVIDIA user for years, this 6990m is the first ATI product ive owned in many years.

    Also, would some other 6990m owners care to post some benchmarks from the Game Hard reset (demo is on steam, it has built in benchmarking, thats what im using). The numbers im getting seem to be low and I am just curious what others are getting, and I cannot find any other benches for this game and this card. At 1920x1080 with MLAA and all settings on ultra im getting around 62FPS.

    Is FXAA the same as FSAA?

    no FXAA (Fast Approximate Anti Aliasing) is a new tech invented by Nvidia(?) which is a Shader based Anti Aliasing Technique which costs almost none performance.

    So how do you run FXAA on ATI cards? i dont see this option in Hard Reset anywhere, or in the ATI drivers.
