What is amd anti-aliasing?
Anti-Aliasing Method
Anti-Aliasing (AA) improves image quality by reducing jagged edges from textures. Applying AA can make an image look smoother and softer, at the expense of lowering FPS. In the example below, the image on the left has AA applied. The image on the right has no AA applied and has more jagged edges.
