Re: Weird jagged graphics after Patch Update

@Lapin_Demoness 

This is a simple check.. But dxdiag makes it look like your monitor is connected to the chipset on the motherboard. (The connected monitor information is shown in the Intel Chipset section, rather than the GTX1060 section.)

Check where your monitor cables are connected to. The cable should be connected to a horizontal port (HDMI/DisplayPort etc.) in the back of the PCI-E bays (Usually located near the bottom of the case, though I've seen cases with a reverse configuration before), as opposed to a vertical port on the motherboard I/O shield.

However, if they are all connected correctly, ignore me. :D

    I'm actually using a gaming laptop.  And if I try to turn laptop mode off, my computer gets super incredibly hot and I'm fearful of melting the motherboard.  

    Is there another way to perhaps connect it to my graphics card and not the chip?

    You could try turning laptop mode off and turning Vsync on and see if it makes a difference to the jagged edges as well as the heat coming from the laptop.

    Another thing you could try is disconnecting the monitor before loading the game and checking if the jagged edges are there while using the built-in screen.
