Frame Limiter not locking framerate correctly in dx11 borderless and windowed

Date & Time: Started 2 weeks ago. No change since then

When in dx11 borderless or windowed modes the ingame framerate limiter does not lock correctly

On 144hz for example
Locking to 72: locks it to 47
Locking to 36: locks it to 27

On 120hz
Locking to 60: locks it to 40
Locking to 30: locks it to 22

In full screen the framerate locks as usual

The If i set my monitor resolution to 60hz the framerate locks normally
But any hz above show the issues described

Frequency: Constant
World name: Phoenix but occurs all worlds
Character name: Suni pastel but occurs all characters
Retainer name: none
NPC name: None
Monster name: None
Class/Level: 80 Red Mage
Party or solo: solo
In-game time: abut 20:00 server time
Area and coordinates: Was in Gridania
Housing: None
Steps:
1. Issue began when logging in
2. Has maintained ever since
3. Have attempted to update/revert or reinstall nvidia drivers to no change
4. Reset window to no change
5. Reinstalled ffxiv to no change

Hi Soul3cho,

Thank you for your detailed issue report, sorry to hear about the frame limiter issues you're experiencing. Based on a previous issue report, describing a similar problem while using a 144Hz display, could you attempt the below troubleshooting and let us know whether it made a difference?

- Disconnect all peripherals except screens, mouse and keyboard (controller, headset, microphone, all other alternative input methods). Restart your computer, launch the game, confirm whether frame limiter is working as intended.

- If frame limiter is not working as intended, please follow the below steps, then verify frame limiter functionality again.

- Press Windows Key+R
- Type msconfig and press Enter
- This will load the System Configuration Utility
- On the General tab
- Click Selective Startup
- Clear the box next to "Load Startup Items"
- On the Services tab
- In the bottom left, click the box next to "Hide all Microsoft services" (VERY IMPORTANT)
- Click on "Disable All"
- Click Apply
- Click OK
- Reboot your PC

Thank you and best regards,

Lupopidari

Hi

this was already done via email support and nothing happen at which point i was instructed to raise the report here

All resolutions above 60hz in windowed and borderless result in the same.
The frame limiter caps it at a lower rate - as i have previously mentioned

if i set it to 144hz and try to cap to half it caps it to 47/48
if i set it to 120hz and cap it to half it caps it to 40

The next instructions was what i was told to do via email and nothing happened, i came back on this and then was told to post this here

Please assist

Hi Soul3cho,

I've reviewed your support tickets before replying to you here, and it seems that disconnecting peripherals was not tried (you did mention disconnecting your second screen, which is why I excluded it in my reply here). We did try a selective startup, but the selective startup I'm suggesting should be done after unplugging all peripherals, and only if the issue is not resolved by the first step to begin with.

Best regards,

Lupopidari

Hi

i just did the steps above unplugging literally everything apart from my mouse and main monitor and everything stayed the same
Same as before

Please assist

I can see similar issues with other people be it in the forums http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/369828
Or in outside threads but no answer

This also is only happening with ffxiv, everything else is locking fine with ingame limiters with 0 issues

Please see example of issue ocurring https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ru9...ature=youtu.be
Sent via email also

hope you can assist

Hi
Upon another look it would seem the framerate values the limiter is capping to are 1/3 of the set values rather than 1/2 for example
40 instead of 60 out of 120

Putting this here in case it is relevant
Still awaiting assistance, please help

dont know if this was just archived or something but would appreciate support
