    New NVIDIA driver update 344.11.

    A new driver update was released last night (I got it last night), yet it was posted for today. I noticed that the game actually runs a ton better with my GeForce 760 Ti. Another surprise is that it says that the new driver update has updated my DirectX 11 API to 11.2! However there is a new feature for the 900 series cards...

    Dynamic Super Resolution
    Implemented Dynamic Super Resolution for improved image quality in games.
    Dynamic Super Resolution produces smoother images by rendering a game at a higher resolution and then downscaling it to the native resolution of the display using advanced filtering. Controls are available on the NVIDIA Control Panel->Manage3D Settings page.
    It is also noted:

    EOL Windows driver support for legacy products

    After Release 340, any subsequent Windows driver release starting with Release 343 will cease to support the products listed in this section.

    The Release 340 drivers will continue to support these products until April 1, 2016, and the NVIDIA support team will continue to address driver issues for these products in driver branches up to and including Release 340. However, future driver enhancements and optimizations in driver releases after Release 340 will not support these products.

    Scored 12,842 on the Benchmark than my regular 9k. At maximum. I noticed some more special effects when I used abilities in the game, too. In case you forgot, I was also the one that pointed out last year when we had a driver update, that the Aetherytes had a blue glow to them, on a forum thread I made about a driver update. I forget which update it was then.

    Thanks for this I've just downloaded. Soon to test with my 660 to see if I notice anything different!

    Special effects meaning particle effects. Some of my magic is more flashy as I tried out all the spell I had at my current levels for my jobs.

    I think the particles effects is from 2.38 updates because I didn't have 344.1 NVidia Drivers when I try out 2.38 and notice some particles effect is different right away, more of it and more flashy.

    I notice NVidia Experience can improve Arch Age and many other game, it a shame why FFXIV Realm Reborn isn't supported.

    Gonna updates the drivers now and see any improvement on my NVidia GTX 770.

    It was supported on Christmas day of last year Got onto my laptop that morning to check emails and saw there was an optimal profile update. Clicked it and I saw that FFXIV was supported.

    I'm not seeing "Dynamic Super Resolution" option in 3D Setting. It is only supported by certain graphic card, though mine is pretty new. It's the NVidia 770 GTX.
