Hi @szernex it would be helpful if you could give us your Cura settings, i.e. the exact settings that produced the model on the left. Use the Windows10 Snipping tool?

As requested here are the Cura profile and the Cura generated gcode.
Hi @szernex, thanks for the gcode, could you please also attach the gcode that slic3r produced? Thanks.

Here you go
Hi @szernex, comparing the two gcodes, the most obvious difference is that with Cura you are using relative extrusion mode and with Slic3r you are using absolute extrusion mode. Secondly, the Cura gcode appears to be using a mixture of line segment lengths around the curve and some of those segments are very short. The combination of short segments and relative extrusion can produce poor quality if the resolution of the extruder (steps/mm) is low. So I suggest you try turning off the relative extrusion option in Cura and also you could try increasing the Maximum Resolution experimental option to increase the line segment size. Hope this helps.

I turned on Relative Extrusion just today to test something else, I was doing the same print before with Absolute extrusion and it was exactly the same result. Maximum Resolution is currently at 0.01mm, what would be a reasonable value to test?

Ah, OK. Well try using a much larger value, say 0.1mm and just see if it makes a difference.

Hello @szernex, please attach the gcode created by Cura to help my understanding. Thanks.
