I need some help making my skyrim look prettier.

The trees have some serious jagged edges even with 8x AA. I tried turning on FXAA but the game just look too blurry for my taste. Can anyone help?

Looking from far away the trees look like this on the left (not my screenshot by the way).

You can try setting multisampling through the Nvidia/AMD control panel. It fixed it for me.

This mod fills out all the pine trees in the world by adding extra branches and needles to the current ones. This will make the game look even more dense and wild like it should have been, but also is great for just sight-seeing. This should be compatible with all texture mods and also there may be more trees coming soon. So far though, I have 30 done!

How much does it impact the performance in your game? If any?

So I have tried forcing multisampling and adding the "lush trees" mod suggested, didn't help. Appreciate the help though.

The FXAA Injector mod has a sharpen effect that counters the blurriness of FXAA. People say it makes the game look grainy, but you can edit the config file and fine tune the effect so that it doesn't look grainy. Works great for me.
