  2. @atheistium Congrats on the new job!

  14. with max settings and AO quality on my 680 (High Quality AO kills perf during the Act 3 boss fight and looks only slightly better).

  16. is more pronounced when you dial back the values responsible for blur. If you want a darker game try some Ambient Occlusion, but if you...
  17. which blurs textures and removes detail. SGSSAA kills aliasing but is super blurry. Dark3D is a configurable FXAA injector, but aliasing...
