what it is, what does it do?
i noticed that when it is on high it slows down character movements on campaign map and when it is on low the characters, and game in general, move smoother

thanks

thanks. what i really wanted to know is whether it actually has any effect on the game's graphics? since i cant see none, apart form slower performance.

It makes thing look smoother, of course. Your system probably isn't good enough to play with AA without that hit to your game speed.

my processor is 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2Duo Processor E6600, RAM Memory 2048 MB, graphic card nVidia GeForce 7500 dedicted up to 512.
shouldnt that be powerful enough? will changing of the graphic card, to lets say nVidia GeForce 8600 GT help? or do i need a more powerful processor too?
thanks for answering my noobish questions.
