    Do you have a FFXIV profile in your "Nvidia Control Panel" under "3D settings"? There's a setting called "Antialiasing Transparency" in there. As per Nvidia's recommendation, changing this setting to "Multisample" offers superior performance. Well, from what I've experienced, I can tell you it DOES NOT offer "superior performance". In fact, it caused my game to stutter like mad.

    So I went back into my settings and changed it back to "OFF" and clicked APPLY. Loaded the game again and STILL terrible stuttering. WTF. Turns out the setting didn't save. Yes, it says "OFF", but the fact is it's still on "Multisample"... just not visually. And so this time I clicked "restore" to restore the FFXIV profile back to default settings, and the stuttering went away. Now I know you're thinking it must have corrected some of my OTHER settings back to default, and so that's why there's no stuttering now. Well, that wasn't the case because I already had all my settings set to default long before the restore. And just to prove my theory, I regenerated the problem 5 times so it's definitely that buggy multisample option at least for me.

    In other words, if you've messed w/ that option in the past, try to do a restore, and see if that works for you.

    HTH... cheers.

    For those of you still using a HDD like me and have some stutter, everytime you restart your computer run a windows 7 defrag on your drive before you log into the game, i've tried other defrags to see not the same results but they may vary. I know its irritating to run a defrag once or more a day for those of us who like to turn our systems off sometimes but it does seem to completely remove all stutter from the game for me and another system i built. SSD ftw guys ~ get one, i need to; ;
