Is there a difference between 3x and 4x on a 1080p display? What resolutions do IR equate to?

So will there be any difference from 3x to 4x on a 1080p display?

Isn't removing the blur using cheats a far better way than increasing your IR to ridiculous levels? Assuming there is a cheat code to do that. Maybe someone can make one?

Since you're using a source with a higher image quality (4x IR) you have more information to use when downscaling to 1080p vs 3x IR. The blending between edges will therefore be more accurate, giving them smoother appearances. This is NaturalViolence 101 stuff :p Anyway, you can test it out for yourself, but the thing is, the higher the IR (and IQ), the harder it is to perceive significant differences in aliasing reduction. So your eyes might not see an overwhelming difference between 3x or 4x IR when both are downscaled to 1080p. I should highlight that raising IR, however, is still inferior to using AA methods like MSAA (for geometry only), or SSAA, or whatever fancy thing your GPU drivers can throw at Dolphin. 07-04-2014, 12:37 PM
Well, 4x is only two times 1080p when stretched. It's a really, really small improvement, not even as much improvement as 2xAA.

Fwiw, the developers have said that Dolphin's scaling method sucks, so that's not helping any. At any rate, as I said, when you start getting into high IRs, the difference is going to be negligible or even unnoticeable (when those IRs are above your display's resolution, that's an important bit I left out earlier

Well my GPU doesn't have problems from 3x to 4x IR, but putting any amount of AA causes a lot of lag.
