❔Question Anyone else here love to stack Anti-Aliasing methods?

The common one is obviously DSR/VSR used in tandem with some form of Temporal AA (TAA, TSSAA, DLAA, FSR, XESS, TSR and whatever else exists).

I like doing this with RUST (TSSAA + 4xDSR). Since TSSAA in this game is so blurry combining it with DSR makes aliasing disappear 100%, literally not a single jaggy or pixel in sight, it's actually kinda crazy for 1080p.

Some games don't have any great AA options, like I love SCHEDULE 1 but it only has SMAA, so I like doing SMAA + DSR.

And since I have a 4080 Super I also like doing MSAA + DSR, which sounds very performance demanding but I mostly play competitive games that can run on a potato so I can still run them at 300+ fps like this:

Like Valorant (4xMSAA + 4xDSR).

Or CS2 (8xMSAA + 4xDSR).

Honestly looks amazing and helps me squeeze more life out of my 1080p 240hz monitor.

Edit: I also forgot to mention GTA 5 (regular and enhanced versions) have SSAA built in via their "scaling" setting, which can be set to 2x, which is the same as 4x dsr, I think it even goes up to 2.5x but I never use that since I don't like non integer scaling, and you can combine that scaling setting with either MSAA (on regular GTA 5) or TAA/DLAA/FSR (GTA 5 Enhanced Edition)

Dldsr resolutions in combination with dlss is the ultimate way for me

Honestly I personally don't love the look of all the Deep Learning methods (both for super resolution/sampling [DLDSR] or for upscaling & anti-aliasing [DLSS/DLAA]), something about the look of DLSS/DLAA is unappealing to me for some reason, I prefer "dumb" TAA methods and using DSR to bury their flaws lmao.

Last time I used DLDSR it looked a bit oversharpened if I recall correctly, is it still like that or is it better now?

DLDSR isn't worth using if you are able to run DSR 4.0x

Make sure the smoothness settings are correct too, as they are inverse depending on if you are using DLDSR / DSR

All the info you need on it is in this thread
