What kind of AA are you considering?
There are numerous variations, and opinions differ on what performs best in each title. For instance, AC:U fans often praise FXAA while others find it causes blurriness elsewhere. Regarding Far Cry 3/4, MSSA is frequently discussed as an alternative. What’s most popular?
SMAA stands out for me. It performs better than FXAA yet avoids the texture blurring issue. It also works well in games that don’t provide it by default. I can’t discuss Unity since I haven’t played it, but I’d prefer antialiasing over FXAA in most titles.
I rely on MSAA level 2 since I’m already at 1440, so I don’t feel the need for more than that unless it adds extra load.
FXAA works well on AC:U, though I usually opt for SMAA when it's possible. The effect can be entertaining in some games, but the performance drop is similar to MSAA and the gains are minimal.
