Feb 14, 2014 - You can creep past all of your foes or try to take them all down. C'mon, do it, Sony! Congratulations to Naughty Dog for not making a cheap cash in. Tomb Raider 2013 basically copy pasted U2/3s formula gameplay wise. 33gb space) as it installed as it was downloading, does Left Behind do. We're going to assume you have your necessary tools downloaded, but not installed, this includes CRU and your respective Pixel Clock Patcher. Tomb raider 2013.

Before we start the tutorial, let's cover two things; the first is that Downsampling is a very GPU intensive anti-aliasing technique, so you're going to need a very powerful card to get good mileage using this technique, however if you play older games you can still use this trick and get reasonable performance. The second is that this technique will give you the best AA results possible, so if you hate jaggies then this is for you. For those who are unfamiliar with jaggies, here is an example of what they look like with various anti-aliasing methods used to remove them. I used stairs in wow as an example of what they look like, notice the stairs in the image and the varying degrees of awkward jagged lines.

You should also know that this guide outlines how to overclock your monitor to get more Hz out of it. You can get a small or large bump in frame rate depending on the make and model of your monitor. As this is an overclocking guide, you can (but most likely won't) damage your hardware in the process. I have no liability for what you do to your hardware, if you follow this guide and do everything properly there should be little to no issues. Use this guide at your own risk.

Alright with that out of the way you're going to need a couple pieces of software in order this to happen. The first and probably most important is going to be Custom Resolution Utility or CRU as it's going to be referred to in this guide. The second tool is sort of optional, you should need the Pixel Clock Patcher, this is going to patch the driver to allow for you to actually overclock the monitor or increase the resolution to your desired values.

This is optional because the driver may or may not already allow for the overclock to take place, it just depends on which version you are using, what monitor you are using, etc. I recommend you do this step no matter what. Both of these utilities were created by ToastyX of monitortests.com so I'd like to thank him for creating these tools. • Before the real meat of the guide begins I'd like to say that I'm doing this from my personal computer which happens to be running two R9 280Xs in crossfire. The technique used should be entirely the same for Nvidia users, but I may not be able to answer some Nvidia related questions/problems. Also this was done on Windows 8.1, it's slightly different to find and change the resolution/refresh rate of your monitor for other operating systems, I'll try my best to accommodate for those using Windows 7.

FOR CROSSFIRE/SLI USERS: Depending on the clock speed of your monitor (if your pixel clock needs to be over 300Mhz) you may need two bridges, this means you can only do a 2x Crossfire/SLI configuration because there's not enough fingers to support more bridges. I'd also like to note that only 2x Crossfire/SLI is supported for these methods, so anyone with 3 or more cards is unfortunately out of luck. Finally to the actual guide portion of this guide. We're going to assume you have your necessary tools downloaded, but not installed, this includes CRU and your respective Pixel Clock Patcher. Unzip the two files that you receive, the first should be the 'atikmdag-patcher-X.X.X.zip' for 'AMD users or nvlddmkm-patcher-X.X.X.zip for Nvidia users', you will then get an.exe that looks like this.

You may do one of two things here, you can change the refresh rate of your monitor, or you can increase the resolution, the first part of this tutorial will cover increasing the refresh rate, the second part will cover increasing the resolution to downsample, so continue from here or skip down to the second part of this guide. Change the Refresh rate to 75 Hz, and hit Ok. You will be back in the original CRU.exe window, hit Ok and navigate back to the folder that was created when you extracted the files (or where they were contained) and then run Restart.exe you screen will go blank for a minute, this is because your various display driver is being restarted. A window will appear, hit okay.
