It would be great if you would stop wasting people's time and making them spend hours on unnecessary legwork just to confirm that this is indeed a FFXIV problem, and as someone else said stop giving the SE staff who are at forums the impression that this is somehow easily resolvable and our fault.

If any of this was a hardware issue as you claim, it would:

1. Be present in every other modern game that either used DX11 or utilized computer resources to a high degree.
2. Result in BSODs or restarts rather than game crashes and DirectX errors.
3. Would not happen to so many users with identifiable similarities.

We are all playing other MMOs and other games with no issues at all.

This is a driver problem with this specific game and the fix has to come from either AMD or the developers, as was confirmed in the past. The drivers that were stable and worked flawlessly were the ones where AMD specifically addressed it and documented it in the patch notes.

Under any circumstance, do not fiddle with your voltage settings nor BIOS if you don't have an advanced understanding of hardware. Your computer does not need tweaking on such a low level in order to function properly, and you can seriously damage it to the point of it not working.
Fine. I will stop trying to help the people in this thread.

Just for your information, here is what my issue was and you can tell yourself if it is the same issue:
My computer did not crash. I did not get any BSOD as you say.
My monitor would occasionally go blank and then recover. I would see an error message, sometimes but not all the time, that my graphic drivers have stop responding and restarted successfully.
I would get a crash of the game and error 11000002 thrown.
The game would work fine in DX9. It was only crashing in DX11.
This was on Windows 10 before the anniversary update.
It was only one 1 of my computer, which has all new parts. My old desktop was fine and was not crashing on DX9 or DX11.
At the time, I was using Nvidia GeForce 680.
The error happens mostly when I am in a dungeon or in Iddyllshire. Rare did it happen when I was alone outside of towns.
The error happens randomly where sometimes I would be able to play for hours while other days I could play about 2 mins.
It was only happening in FF14 while WoW ran perfectly fine.

So, if this does not describe what is happening, then I must be reading a different thread.

Just so you know, just because there is a problem with hardware does not mean you would get BSOD. Sometimes a hardware problem can present itself in crashing drivers. I know this from the 16 years I have been building and repairing computers as well as providing tech support to others. I even work as one for a little over a year.
