It appears MSAA has issues with performance and stability.

I recall those early gaming times when I adjusted MSAA to 8X and got the clearest, most smooth visuals possible. Even now, in GTA 5, setting it to 8X doesn’t quite match the sharpness of 2X anymore. I’m not sure if it’s because newer games use different rendering methods, but MSAA feels quite outdated. It seems the best way to eliminate aliasing is by pairing Nvidia DSR with a touch of FXAA.

FXAA Master Race. I'm not entirely confident. Perhaps it's just how it softens the edges...

Probably just a specific game engine you're working with. I haven't tested 8xmsaa yet because it creates problems with AMD GPUs in GTA.

However, it once appeared very appealing. I'm limited to applying FXAA only on highly upscaled pictures.

It shouldn't be allowed to claim FXAA is a blurry mess, and MLAA injectors are fine.

It appears identical to 4X but introduces a significant slowdown.

Oh no, FXAA is terrible.

It's acceptable with Nvidia DSR, though it looks quite poor at native resolution.

MSAA remains consistent over time; it likely appeared smoother for you before since you were probably using a lower resolution, which reduces aliasing effects.

MSAA isn't supported for transparent textures.
