DX 11 Client crashes my PC

[Samias]

I have the same graphics card and suffer the same severe issues with the DX11 client. When my drivers crash, it force reboots my PC but the drivers for my graphics card do not come back on until I manually reset my system again. The NVidia drivers and the new FFXIV client just don't play nice, as my fiance has an AMD card and has had zero issues despite having a weaker PC than I do.

I don't know if SE will tweak the client or if it's on NVidia to push out a new driver on their end.

I wonder if it's a 900 series issue then? I have a GTX 970 and I saw another post with a 980 that had issues. And not every map gave me issues, I had no crashes in Gridania, Coerthas, or Mor Dhona but crashed frequently in Limsa Lominsa and South Shroud. When I switch back to DX9 I have zero issues whatsoever, nor did the DX11 benchmark give me any problems.

I get these exact same crashes-- System reboots hangs (no video loading) even though windows has reloaded-- and no video will show up until you restart the entire system. Event viewer shows nvidia stream service crashing / some of the time - but other time there isn't much information logged to go on. Definitely a Driver/Game issue.

I'm rolling with GTX 970 - fully upgraded drivers and top of the line specs for CPU/RAM etc --

It's really a shame

I have a gtx670.And apart from dual monitor wrong handling , I haven't seen a crash till now(apart from severe fps drop on the dx11 should be better not worse than dx9).From what I am reading and wild guessing this is a driver problem.And probably the client will need some tweaking as well.I hope we are going to have some updates soon enough.

Yeah so seems 600 series works fine no issues on 680 here, wonder what it can be that causes the malfunction on the 900 series. If they had some proper crash reporting where ppl could automatically send them crash reports might be easier for them to figure out.
