You can see how jagged and unpleasant the edges look in the images above. I have my Edge Smoothing set on Medium, and I've tried adjusting the Edge Smoothing numerous times to no luck. From what I've heard from others, I'm not the only one experiencing this issue.
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.
