Fixing Anisotropic Filtering

Not too long ago I flew down to NVIDIA in Santa Clara to meet with them for the purpose of discussing image quality. As you will remember from our NV30 review, we were far from pleased with the way NVIDIA's anisotropic filtering looked in comparison to ATI's.

Luckily with the latest drivers from NVIDIA that accompany the NV35, the problem has been solved. Let's first start off with all of ATI's modes:
