Damn, this game can look really good, and there's some really interesting mods. Will try to use some things in the compendium thread later to do some screenshots, specially timestop.

Assettocorsa 2560x1440 down sample with max settings.

What am i doing wrong with shots from this game guys? can't seem to get rid of the jaggies??

You need good AA on top of Downsampling. OGSSAA by itself simply isn't enough unless you get to like 3x3 and beyond. And even then, not perfect a lot of times. Look at those Burial At Sea screenshots at 6k resolution. Still tons of aliasing everywhere at native but once downsampled it cleans up nicely. But again, this is at 9x resolution of 1080p (3x3).

Take a look at this.

A comparison using Castle of Illusion.

1600x900 no AA vs 3200x1800 no AA DS to 1600x900 (2x2 OGSSAA)

Now compare

1600x900 no AA vs 3200x1800 in game AA +FXAA downsampled to 1600x900

And finally

3200x1800 no AA DS x900 vs 3200x1800 in game AA+FXAA DS x900

In the case of your game, it has a lot of specular and shader aliasing. Which can only really be conquered by SGSSAA. (Which may also help with the shadow map aliasing that is occurring at oblique angles)
And in motion that specular aliasing in particular is going to be all over the place.
So how about Bethesda shows us some freaking respect and announce FO4 already?

And I bet it won't look that good either heh.

Wait. Maybe I can add another one, I took a better look inside my case and the motherboard is this one:
http://www.vortez.net/index.php?ct=articles&action=file&id=15264
the PCI slots in order:
1. soundcard
2. GTX 680 4GB
3. empty and blocked by gpu
4. empty
5. empty
6. empty and basically blocked by the PSU cables.

the gpu goes on the 4th slot, right? So can I put one there and SLI them?
That's an ASRock Z77 Extreme 4, it should fit fine. The 4th slot is another PCI-E 3.0 16x Slot. Which in SLI will run both slots in x8 width (IIRC)

Though also you may need to check whether your PSU is stated as being rated for SLI and has enough power to power 2 680s. But I assume at this point if it's good enough for 1 680, it's probably good enough for two if it's a decent 750w or so.

Which monitor? One of those fancy '21:9' aspect ratio displays?

QNIX QX2710 2560x1440. Can create the following resolutions so far:

Assassin's Creed 4 can be played in non 16:9 resolutions if you use flawless widescreen.

Oh snap! Glickenhaus'sP4/5 Competizione, yes? I was just wondering if that was going to be in gt6 but... There it is in AC. Is it awesome??

Yep and it is awesome! Very fast but with a stable back end and tons of grip. Turn is quick and predictable and you can place it right where you want it. It's crazy how much you can push the limit as well. AC does a great job of making you feel like your driving fast and then you start pushing even harder and realize you were not even at the limit quite yet. The tire model in the game just feels fantastic. The feeling of grip and loss of grip is very progressive and natural which allows you to drive with more more confidence than in other sims. It's much easier to catch and correct oversteer and slides too.

Just so you know the lighting in that showroom is bugged and messed up. The other showrooms are much better. Also did you know there is a free cam screenshot mode if you enable dev apps. Should be able to get some nice angles without the hud and stuff.
