My first Radeon display problem

[micron]

Grrrr,......So I'm playing Comanche 4 now(kinda late I know)on an 8500, and when the helo is flying high over water, the surrounding edges of the water look all hugely jagged and horrible, but when I fly down lower, the edges turn smooth and round, they way they should. Targets off in the distance look bad also. WHY?...I'm using Cat 3.2 and latest Rage tweak. I thought maybe my memory was clocked too high..(300Mhz@ 3.3ns), but I lowered it and still the same...I really want to fix this problem...any help?

Z-fighting. Make sure you're in 32-bit colour. Also try forcing W-buffer. If all else fails, force a 32-bit Z buffer, but be warned as Stencil is disabled in that mode.

Thank you Tagrineth, I was playing the game in 16bit, because usually I get better framerates in that mode....I'll try it......thank you for the reply.
