Stormblood Benchmark Scores.

[dirtyhands]

Side by side scores for anyone interested on the difference between the end results in these two resolutions. Both are on max settings with the system specs in the screenshot. Could probably get the scores up a bit with tweaking, but its a good baseline for anyone curious about Ultrawide requirements.
Ultrawide

Standard

I put the "Best" in the options at 1920 X 1080 and I got 996 on my old computer, saying something like "too bad but you can't play". Just got my new computer today and I got... 11172. I'm quite happy about this result.

Windows finally forced the new Creators update on me and I was worried it would impact my gaming performance (I did read some complaints with issues online) however, I'm happy to report that the update actually increased the performance (in FFXIV at least) I went from having a score of about 8900 with an average of 60fps to 9123 with an average of almost 64 fps! I was so pleasantly surprised, I figured I'd post it on here in case there are others worried about the Windows 10 creators update.

(I have the Game Mode switched off though, I don't plan on using it)

Just set up a new Desktop with 2 1080ti founders edition 11gb each, thought I'd run a quick benchmark.


Edit: Not happy with my score. I'm running other things and remote connected in, I'll tweak settings and post an updated SS later

Not too bad for my build PC build. Curious how my Laptop does. I'll post once I test it.

I VPN'd into my pc to do this lol.

My laptop is going about 4000-5000 so not bad, and highly functional.

Not too bad for a first run, no tweaks, old monitor.

OK so I posted my main PC score earlier in the thread but I've recently been putting together a low budget gaming PC for my kids and thought I'd test it out... here it is before any modifications: I started with an Acer Aspire TC-780 then I upgraded the RAM from 8 gigs single channel to 16 gigs dual channel and this is the result:



after that I got a GTX 1050 TI and put it in there and ran it at the same settings and got these scores:



then just for kicks I set it to Max and ran it again and got this:



The total cost of the system I put together for these final results was somewhere between $700 and $850 so if you are on a budget I think this is a decent starting point for you.

Your CPU limited your GPU. Really you need to change your CPU or your 1080 Ti is wastet.
And for a 1080 Ti your Resolution is really low. With This GPU you could easy play with 2560x1440.
