Stormblood Benchmark Scores.

I realized that there was no point in me having the poopy FXAA turned on anymore since i have a 2k monitor, turned that off and got like a thousand more on the next test.

FXAA is no Real Anti Aliasing, all it does is putting a Filter over your "Rendering Screen" and therefore in some Way is a "Free Cheap AA".
In Short : It only costs you like 0,1% Performance.

What costs Performance are Parallax Occlusion Mapping (It's ugly in FFXIV... Low Res Textures FTW), and SSAO (HBAO / HBAO+ are extremely GPU Intensive)
Shadows doesn't even come close to the amount of Power you need compared to SSAO or Parallax.

Turning Parallax off and putting SSAO to Low-Mid-High will give you a better Framerate then simply turning off FXAA (Tho I would turn this off aswell, it simply blurs)

Here are my scores for both 1080p and 2160p, not too shabby for a single GTX 980 Ti. I'm just waiting for my second 980 Ti to return from an RMA I filed last week because of a fan failure. Maximum at 2160p does put a strain on a single 980 Ti and was averaging about 40 fps but I normally have SLI, so that's not an issue for me.

My PC specs:

i7 4790k w/Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO @ 4GHZ
16GB Corsair Dominator GT DDR3 2000
Zotac GTX 980 Ti AMP Extreme SLI
ASUS Z97 Sabertooth Mark 1
EVGA SuperNOVA P2 1000W Platinum Rated
Toshiba HK3R2 960GB Enterprise SSD
Windows 10 Pro x64
65 inch LG OLED65B6P 2160p HDR UHDTV

1080p score




2160p/4k score

Who knew you could get so low a score! The loading times were incredible, I can't believe I actually used to play on this. Better stick with the ps4 pro lol

My laptop score was unfortunate. So I built a new PC. Everything was max besides some shadow thing I think?
