FPS drops when using FPS limit with the combination of windowed / borderless screen

no FPS drops when in full screen, how do i go about fixing this?

Fullscreen is better in pretty much every game because it allocates more resources to the Fullscreen application, that's why it has better performance.

Hello Moxas, Thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums

When did this start? Have you noticed it before? Have you made any changes or updates that may coincide with this issue? Have you tried anything to resolve this issue?

Hope to be of assistance.

It happened after installing the new Nvidia 1080 GPU driver, i thought that would fix the audio delay problems which is now fixed with the new FF14 update.
I tried a full clean install of the driver, there seems to be no FPS drops when i use a 3rd party FPS capper, it's just the in game one that causes issues, specifically the 72 FPS limit, the 144 limit seems fine, im usually around 80 - 100 frames if i uncap, maybe the capper doesn't like limiting FPS lower than what i actually can get.

Hello Moxas, Thank you for your response.

Being that this seems to have started after installing the latest graphic card driver, I would like to suggest rolling back the update to the previous driver. Please keep us updated on if this helps your issue.

Hope to be of assistance.
