@icedquinn that was the reason behind using just a blur (fxaa) or temporal effects (taa/tsr). turning off anti-aliasing is all well and good but unless you're running at 4K (and sometimes even then) you're going to run into issues with things being way too noisy.
i would rather take a performance hit for MSAA than use any of these new ones. DLAA isn't as bad but it's also a pretty decent performance hit.
