Hey so I've been having this probably for about a year now, I got my new PC and it was working fine, was playing GTA 5 and suddenly anti-aliasing in all my games stop working. So I tried to fix it, and then I thought it was my GPU so then I got the GTX 980, the same thing happen the anti-aliasing wasn't working. So I got a whole new PC, with the same GPU I had in my old one but the same thing happen. So then I went out and got my self a 4k monitor and the anti-aliasing wasn't working still, I even tried playing the games in 4k with the anti-aliasing on max settings and I can still see those jagged lines. I've already tried doing a clean install, even reinstall Windows. But nothing seems to work. Could it be because of Windows 10 or am I doing something wrong here? Please help me! Sadly I don't have the GTA 5 pics anymore, but if you guys need any let me know and I'll jump on a game and take some.

This isn't my pic but it looks just like this.

I have the same issue. Everything was fine before. I was playing gta 5 with no problem and then suddenly aa just stooped working. But i see those jaggies mostly only when i move. (all games). Please help if anyone knows how to fix that. Because i know it was not like that before. Funny thing, i recorded a game play and shared screen to my friend in discord, but he could not see the problem. It was seen only on my screen. That is weird as well. Please help. I am out of ideas.
 
Enable in game and nv control panel.
 
Has any of you tried older drivers? Like few versions back. Clean install old driver and see how it goes. Maybe nvidia has messed something in drivers as they like to gimp image quality with drivers update, for example first driver for 9xx series which also introduced mfaa was reported by many users as driver adding a lot of aliasing, wonder why, huh?

Already tested

I believe what you're missing is not AA, but transparency AA. Go to the control panel, enable that and set it to MSAA (SSAA took too much a performance hit last I benchmarked it). If that doesn't do it, look up gamma corrected AA (or something like that) and enable that, too. The latter is usually not needed, because its effects are rarely seen.

I smell something, and I recommend you don't feed it.

Topic necro btw.

Needs a lock

The AA is not magically dissappearing on GPUs, but it also does not magically remove any and all artifacts or jaggies. /thread.

If its there between two cards and a swap (which means: you get back to default settings as well) then there is no issue and its just you.

Take note of the quote from Toms that I pasted above here. It really is the best answer to this. I kid you not.

Picture look fine, level of anti-aliasing offer in game menu and drivers is not possible to fix 100% edges.
 
the pics are fine, live with it, as mentioned it cannot be smooth 100%.
To be sure one can up the resolution and force fxaa globally from control panel
 
When you move little left right edges will be straight.
Everything is normal. I can't wait to collect some money for 4K Monitor.
There AA and AI could be Disabled/Off and only other details Maxed Out.
On 4K Monitor you would see only 20% of imperfection you see there and on 27-32" picture would be perfect.
 
Close this thread. It is by design for GTA 5.

Only thing that can remedy it is DSR at cost of performance. The game engine specific. Case closed.
 
Enable MFAA and FXAA for GTA V in nvidia control panel and use MSAA ingame (for MFAA to work you need at least MSAA x2).
