Good morning and thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

What have you tried so far to alleviate the issue? Additionally are Steam and Final Fantasy XIV installed on the same drive?

Thank you for visiting the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums

ive completely reinstalled the game twice and have tried clean installing my gpu drivers. one time tried it on direct x9 got into the game and experianced massive frame drops until game just crashed with a fatal direct x error.

A work around for this is to disable all audio outputs other then the one you use.

So in your case I can assume it is the Arctis Pro Headphones.

Search in windows for sound settings > sound control panel, and disable all audio devices other then 1 of the headphones. You could see if disabling only 1(the chat earphones one) would be enough.

Good afternoon and thank you for the reply

If you have not done so already, could you try a clean boot on the desktop to see if the crashing continues. This will prevent any programs from starting up when the starting when the computer first boots up. This can end up having adverse effects on the game when these programs are running in the background. To perform a clean boot for Windows 10: Open the task manager (CTRL+SHIFT+ESC) and select the 'Start up' Tab. Disable everything here and restart the PC.

This usually works because the user has a blank entry for FFXIV in the windows mixer settings, if the entry is not blank all devices can stay enabled without concern, minus a few cases where the system is experiencing USB controller hub resets (a problem common to Ryzen 3000 and 5000 cpus)
