    Benchmark working poorly on GTX 1080 for anyone else? Client works fine!

    I set it to maximum settings, and my GTX 1080 is getting maybe half the scores my 780 was, with some very obvious jaggies.

    Contrast with the FFXIV: Heavensward client itself, which will not drop below 59fps at 1440p on max settings / directx11.

    Did this happen for anyone else with a GTX 1080?

    I don't have the 1080, but I speculate that its likely just the outdated benchmark. A lot of optimizations have taken place in the client since the HW benchmark's release.

    I don't have the GTX 1080 (you moneybags, you ;P) but do know that hardware can perform poorly with FFXIV for a while after its release. I believe there were issues with both the AMD R3xx & Nvidia GTX 9xx ranges until several patches & driver updates occurred. There was no official acknowledgement of the problems though.

    The benchmark wasn't designed for that card since it is brand new.

    Here is my benchmark scores and settings. I have zero overclock and am only running 1080p for the benchmark. Plan to do a 4k one as well but expect the score to drop. Not getting any graphic anomalies or pixel issues on my end. Running windows 10 pro 64 bit with the only driver available at the moment. The benchmark was designed to scale all the way to 4k at do it with directx 11. That is as much as I know. One thing to note though is the bench will only use 3gb of vram even if you had a titan x with 12gb. I could not find any work around when I googled this issue.

    On a different note this card so far has not been able to keep constant 60fps at 4k even with the power profile increased to 125 and the core/mem overclocked as recommended by hardocp review. Not with max settings. However if you turn off AA and some other settings that don't seem to matter at 4k it settles down a bit. 60 is gonna be doable once the driver matures and the game gets more 4k optimizations. At least I hope. I get 60fps (set to cap on purpose) most of the time just not 100%. It does dip to 52 - 54 fps some in heavy weather zones. Turning off the settings I mentioned along with occlusion culling does seem to stabalize the fps some though. Setting the graphics to standard desktop shores it up to a firm 60fps but why do that if you have a 1080 card?

    No, it's not the card its the benchmark. The benchmark wasn't even designed when this card was out aka the benchmark is old. You will be fine, dont worry.
