Phillip, who has been playing FPS games and everything for MANY years now, and who also knows quite a lot with hardware says that at anything above 1920x1080, AA is barely noticeable and not needed.
You're making a slightly cyclical argument here as there's little difference to having the game on low and on high "in the heat of the battle". AF is clearly noticable on textures, at an resolution, and I run it at 16x on all games. Here's a
demonstration.
AA is less noticable, perhaps. However if you look at the comparison in
Half Life 2 it's clearly visible. The resolution of the screenshot is irrelevant as you're viewing it on your high resolution monitor.

Sorry, but if you'd actually looked at the page before, you would have seen that it's all about running with no AA/AF. It shows that the GTX285 is 4fps and the GTX275 is 2fps more than the 5850. And that the 9800GT gets less than the 4850.
I'm going to quit arguing, your argument style points to you being a clear nVidia fanboy. If you're going to accuse me of being an ATi one, the HD5850 is the first ATi card I've ever owned. I'll let JA read the numbers and see what he wants to get.
