    There are Beta 12.11 drivers out now, give them a whirl. Also the highest i'd go is 4xMSAA

    Dcully manages 60 fps with msaa x8 on a single 660 ti. I still can't figure it out, it should not be possible with that card.

    No mate not in dx 11 i said this already somewhere in one of the threads :)
    I get 80-150 approx in dx 9 with or without msaax8
    I get 60-120 approx in dx 11 without aa, aa in dx 11 cripples me.
    2x aa isnt too bad but anything more kills things.
    The dx 11 screenies i posted were no aa and 2x.

    Sorry I missed that. That brings it more into line with what I would expect.

    sweet - Turned off MSAA and i'm getting 50 to 60fps, looks smoth as butter. Gonna install the beta drivers now. Just looking at the patch notes:

    Improves performance in Far Cry 3 (up to 25% with 8xMSAA, SSAO enabled @ 1600p, and up to 15% with 8xMSAA, HDAO enabled @1600p) (AMD Catalyst 12.11 CAP2 must also be installed)

    Hopefully its provides some additional improvements

    You might be able to do x2 or x4 with out much of a hit to performance.
