Wondering how much of a hit things like changing filtering from bilinear to trilinear, enabling mipmaps (and basic vs. full), and Anisotropic filtering cause for higher end GPUs, and if the impact is intensified with internal resolution scaling.
The best person that can answer that is yourself. With your specific rig, you shouldn't see much of a hit, but only you can know for sure by trying different settings and seeing how they might effect your games
every filter added reads more texture data from memory. ofc it impacts performance. and ofc using higher resolution intensifies it. you have more pixels you have to fill. i gotta agree with the former post, how big the impact is, is what you gotta try yourself.
In the case of Accurate Date and Mipmapping , they can actually improve performance.
