Here's the info from a year ago in regard to why 4xAA is the highest setting, here's an example of what i see when running at 1920x1080.

2xAA + 2xSGSS = 40% gpu usage
4xAA + 4xSGSS = 60% gpu usage
8xQAA + 8xSGSS = 60% gpu usage
32sAA + 8xSGSS = 60% gpu usage

Conclusion: All AA levels above 4x are just 4x otherwise you'd see an increase in gpu usage.
Perhaps setting 8xSGSS changes where the 4x pixel sample points are located??? So you may see a slight difference... but not 8x.

I don't think so yet, as I'm damn satisfied with the performance I've got.
I can still set SILK Smoothness in NPI. Probably I will make a full update
to the latest versions when I have my not yet unpacked monitor installed.

Yesterday night, I had also tried to install driver 442.xx and NPI 2.3.10 for the silk smoothness setting but unable to install driver because of the latest window 10.

So Now I am running latest driver version 466.xx

I would like to share my game pic with you but unable to take picture by pressing F10, how I will share here some pics? I don't know whether it is allowed or not.

@BenganJ

One query,

when I zoom map my game crash.. I have promod / rusmap / SR... search on the internet and came to know that this happens because of buffer size

Is there any link with the steam launch option?
My launch option excated like you mentioned : -64bit -nointro -unlimitedlog -mm_pool_size 16000 -mm_max_resource_size 90 -mm_max_tmp_buffers_size 1000

I have 32 GB ram so pool size mentioned 16000

In config
uset r_buffer_page_size "50"

You'll find my recommended Steam Launch Options in the first post, as well as r_buffer_page_size.

I had copied your recommended only and changed only ram setting 16000 instead of 4000

@t2patel

That's correct and r_buffer_page_size value of 30 is enough! If it still crashes, post your game log, but in the following topic.
