    A bad driver load maybe? Reading through the thread, it seems the GPU is the trigger for the crash. If it's not heat and the GPU isn't bad, it would be a driver issue or an overclocking conflict (voltage draw vs. voltage available).

    I don't think so, I dont have issues in any other game. Only FFXIV, my PC is steady as a rock. I have even ran stress tests on RAM, CPU, Memory and HDD, everything passes any stability test I can throw at it.

    I must confess, recently this problem has not been as bad for me. I am limited to maybe 1 crash per week. However, I don't fate grind as much as I used to, which is where the problem seems to present itself he most.

    So under heavy loads. What's your GPU? Do you happen to know if there are any beta drivers out for it?

    That honestly sounds like a rendering panic. Voltage values may be off or the driver may conflicting with other software.

    Can you raise the voltages on your cores and see if you stabilize? Remember, push them up but be careful as you can fry/short/burn the cores if pushed too high.

    I had to tweak my voltages when I originally got this motherboard due to stability issues. Since I found stable values I am not prepared to start messing with them again in case the lockups start again.

    If you look up this thread:

    http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/...-790i-freezes#.

    You'll see my voltages.

    At the same time, if there really was a voltage issue would I not be experiencing problems in other areas of my system?

    I fail to understand how your PC can be perfectly stable 24/7 doing everything else bar FFXIV and somehow my PC is the problem.

    For me, this still happens as well .. hope soon a fix will be deployed.

    From what I've noticed, FFXIV draws unreal amounts of CPU computation. If your computer doesn't ramp it's own voltage on the cores (locked in the state maybe) it will try to run the higher frequencies, but not have enough juice to perform causing a crash.

    On my personal machine, I had to ramp my NB Voltages and CPU Voltages to run it how I wanted to.

    I could be wrong and I'm not the end all to computers or anything. But when I ramped my own voltages up and locked my P0 state, I stopped having issues.
