Performance

Since image quality isn't the only factor, we must also take into account performance in the various FSAA settings:

As you can see, the Radeon gets dominated when in 16-bit color, due to its slow performance in 16-bit even with FSAA off. At 16-bit color, the Radeon is easily dominated by the GeForce 2 GTS. The Voodoo5 5500 in 4X mode provides for a much better image, though it does run a bit slower. In 32-bit color, the Radeon looks as good as the GeForce 2 GTS in 2x2 mode high quality, but it goes much faster. This makes gameplay in FSAA in 640x480x32 an option for gamers.
