Still having stutter issues. Any suggestions?

[RegaDosei]

I've recently gone out and purchased a Corsair 60gig SSD in hopes that it would solve my stutter.....I did a clean install of Windows 7 64bit (was on 32 before with same issue) as well as reinstalling XIV. I've followed guides in optimizing my SSD card and still no luck...
Whether i'm on low settings with everything off, or at my preferred optimization High to Very High. I get the same results. I also ping on Wutai around 150ms...

The stutter is tolerable (even in Uldah) until after about 10minutes of being logged in.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Fixes that were successful in my case:

-AMD Phenom II X4 955BE when running above 71 degrees Celcius gave stutter.
I changed to Power Saver Mode to reduce temperature.
Also added some thermal paste (I didnt see a serious change in temp.)

-Also my Nvidia image settings keep resetting to "Use the advanced image 3D setting" why? I have no idea. but changing it to "Let the 3D application decided" did the trick.

-Vsync force on got rid of some screen tearing i had too.

Without knowing the rest of your system, and the exact settings for the game, it is rather hard to give input.

If you stutter 10min when you log in then it goes away and lag sometimes then noting you can do about it. There noting anyone can do the game really bad now. When they shut down the servers that last time for 6hours now am getting 1-15fps in city for a short time then it stay at 20-25 when i was getting easy 35-45 and outside 50-60 now am getting random lag spikes out of no where. I think it just issue with ffxiv itself and not our hardware.

[RegaDosei]

What I am getting doesn't seen to be "lag spikes" It's a consistent chop. My FPS in in uldah is constantly 20-30.

Also, I tried different drivers for my GTX 460. 260.99 and 270.01. Same problem.

What do you mean Chop? like your Char is moving like paper once in the while?

[RegaDosei]

Another note that might have significance. During the stutter my CPU usage percent spikes from 35%- sometimes to 85%!....
Now, I'm running a Quad Core. Could there be some type of optimization I could do to better suit my CPU for FFXIV? Just a thought.

Like i said that happen to me and a few others i know in the game this issue start around when they had that 6hour shut down to fix Char rollback now it take me 1-2min to load a zone it reminding me a lot like beta1.

It's the whole game, not just my character.
This is not my video, but it looks very much like this...

Sep 7, 2010 post so that when it was open beta and it was really bad. Like i said the game really gone bad when they had that 6hour shut down to fix the Char roll back. Try and roll back your divers too march/ april version then try it out i know that the time that they fix most issue.

You may have to wait for 1.18 to see if the issue was really SE or your PC. But right now looking at your spec you should not have issue.

I'm running

3870 256bit 512MB
3Core "AMD" 2.60ghz
4GB DDR2

And i run everything on

Drawing Quality- Standard "Can play high but there not much diff"
Background Drawing Quality "Can also run high but not much diff
Texture Quality=High
Texture Filtering=Highest

Everything else is off I don't like shadows in game so i have that off.

And i was getting before that 6hour shut down 40FPS in city and 60FPS outside. Now am getting lag spikes of 1-15fps in city and 35FPS and lower in city but i stay a nice 50-60 outside but sometime get a lag once a blue moon.

Question do you have lag 24.7? or only for a short time.
