FSR 4 is fine, but since I'm playing on a CRT, it's upscaling from lower resolutions, which is less than ideal. That's why I prefer other AA solutions for my use case. I think the hiccups came from the DP to VGA adapter. I bought a high-end Startech in anticipation to receiving my new CRT monitor, but when I received the monitor it turns out the adapter only gave me the option to use 60hz refresh rate at any resolution (it wasn't the case with the other, smaller monitor, strange). I swapped it with an older Startech adapter I was using until now and I can set higher refresh rates at any resolution with my new monitor and the hiccups are gone. Speaking of which, I might have gone a bit too far, it's a 20 inch monitor and it's huge 😅

Edit: In Alan Wake's case it's not even upscaling but it still looks kinda blurry.
