Again, system specs were changed for this test, just to recap:

Opteron 148 at 3.0 GHz
Ballistix memory at 3-3-3-8 273 MHz running 1:1

We ran the same demo as previously shown for comparison reasons.

The standard modes of AA do very well but performance suffers with Adaptive AA on with the only setting that was playable is 2x Adaptive AA in performance mode. This setting really doesn't offer much in the way of cleaning up the image in Serious Sam 2 so you'd be best served running standard AA modes and a high resolution.
