Welp... my whole computer could do with an upgrade. If only I had teh muny. But I don't, and frankly, it runs smoothly at max settings, so I don't even really care that much.
Well, for starters, click on Settings and the Graphics Settings 1 tab, right on top, there's that drop-down menu called Graphics Presets, you can try to see how your computer performs with lower settings. I would suggest tinkering with the individual settings, if you have the time and patience. Other than that, on the hardware side - upgrades. CPU and RAM (that would probs also mean a new motherboard), graphics card, maybe get a SSD if you don't yet have one... but all those get real costly real fast. \:
>_> ARR benchmark when it came out, I got over 9000! but this one I can barely break 3.1k...with the same pc :/ Though with dx11, I get less frame rate issues than dx9. Think my pc might be crapping out even though it's fairly new, considering the frame rate issues didn't start up until around 2.2 D:
Pretty bad, but then my computer is pretty bad so it's about what I expected.
It does say in the description that the previous benchmark score was based on FPS alone. This one calculates it based on the overall performance of the computer (whatever that entails).>_> ARR benchmark when it came out, I got over 9000! but this one I can barely break 3.1k...with the same pc :/ Though with dx11, I get less frame rate issues than dx9.

>_> Still sure my pc is crapping out on me though lol it'd explain the sudden fps drop since 2.2. Perfect fps from beta until then and now its happening in the benchmark, barely even manage 20 fps in game since then.
Well what settings did you pick for graphics? High, medium or low? Then decide if you have it on the highest setting, what other settings could you lower. Shadows are a good one, water reflections also another good one to lower and not many know this but the physics for other chars takes a massive chunk of performance.
Try playing around with settings you think would be big performance users and lower then till you get the balance of high score (they should show avg fps) with decent looking graphics. And tbh don't worry about hitting the 7k+ mark you really do not need that much power to run FF.
The best score id say to be in with a decent shot of running all high settings is around 3500-4000 in score.
sadly couldn't run benchmark on Nvidia Surround, not working for some reason.
