New Computer for FFXIV?

[Eunys]

With drivers 275.33 I'm running full screen 1920x1080 (v-sync needs to be forced on), 4x aa, 8, 3, Shadows Lowest, Texture Q High, Texture F Highest, and in game shadows and dust turned off. Only issue I encounter is when changing wards it'll skip a second or two if i start moving to soon after zoning, other then that it's flawless everywhere else.

But is it using both GPUs or do you just know it runs smoothly? I run a 250 GTS with settings that are the same if not higher and it's completely smooth, so it's not too farfetched that the performance you're seeing is from a single GPU. Do you have a GPU activity monitor? I'm curious because I'd love to SLI two 400 series cards when I upgrade.

Yeah with SLI you should definately be able to run much higher settings than that. And window mode support SLI/CF depends on the game. Sadly ffxiv is one if the crappily coded games that don't seem to support it(I thought I had it running in windowed CF a few times but never got it to work again till now).
