Hi,

My specs are:

Ryzen 5 1600
ASUS DUAL RX 580 8GB
MSI B350M Mortar Motherboard
G. Skill Trident 16GB RAM running at 2133MHz

In Dark Souls 3 and to a much lesser extent in The Witcher 3, I am getting poor anti-aliasing, with swords and such appearing to have tiny saw teeth if I pay attention to it, along with all other edges. PLUS there is a weird beading effect of alternating light and dark contrast on all edges that appears to "flow" a little with camera movement.

It's especially bad in Dark Souls 3. The lastest Doom and the first Metro game don't have this issue at all. These four are the only games I have run so far.

Here are some screent shots with areas where the problem is especially visible circled in red.

Also, this video captures the exact same problem I am having: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKOzqLiysbc

I am wondering if this is an hardware issue or not? ANd if something can be done to help it in either case?

I overrode the application settings with the highest AA settings in the Radeon settings thing but that had no effect. I tried turning the graphic settings lower and higher in game but didn't help either. I am running at 1080p at 60FPS without any lag.
