    6950 Performance

    Kk... So finally got my friends to get there money up and purchase rigs.. so i figured we should give FFXIV a shot... I sold my old card to a friend (5770) and Upgraded mine to a 6950 Twin Frozr II OC. Now from what I've read its an impressive card and also i've bench marked it a couple of times on heaven I've gotten up to 60FPS with the default settings. However once i play FFXIV i get about 30FPS-36FPS... in non populated areas its just me and a few billy goats..lol. I've seen people on this forum claim to get 60FPS with max and 8AA..

    My settings are as follow

    Max on everything.
    No AA
    No DoF/Ao

    Also my card is clocked to 940/1400...

    General Drawing Quality <<<< Do not maximize this option

    try 8 (Standard)

    Set General Draw Quality no higher than 8 (9 and 10 will not increase quality, and setting it to 8 may free up enough GPU resources that you can turn on max AA and still get a performance boost if GDQ was set over 8). Full screen mode is faster. Make sure you have the latest windows updates as well as the latest video drivers. Other than the basics, can't offer much until you post your specs and settings in FF (can get both from the FF Config utility).

    Would need your CPU too cuse if that is out dated, no matter what graphics card you have it cant process quickly enough.

    I have a 5770 and I run 60fps lol. 40+ crowded, i could turn of 8AA and it'd be smoother but meh

    I have a 6950 and get 60FPS in the field and around 40FPS in Ul'dah. Got my setting on high apart from Drawing Quality 8, DoF and AO off.

    oh and it's running 840/1350 on the card.
