    I switched back to DX9 last night. I had 2-3 crashes running full screen. Real annoying. No issues after the switch. >
    I don't understand how memory could be an issue when my card is also 2GB. I ran the game on an old GTX 650 Ti years back and that old thing only had 1 GB of memory and I never had the game freeze or crash on me with it.

    I was saying that my old card was 2gb, and I had freezing problems like you are experiencing. My new card is 4gb and I do not have the stutter/freezing issue anymore. Just the DX11 crashing.

    I doubt it's a lack of video memory since this game isn't that graphically intensive, even with the new DX11 features. The minimum and recommended specs for video cards are pretty low key so that Square can get the game more or less even on all platforms. My problem is the hangs/freezing occurs randomly when I transition between zones and it never happens when I log into the game when I start to play.

    Windowed mode seems to remove the problem completely so perhaps it's a link between DX11 and the way it uses full screen.
