    This particular issue (the recurring and apparently unfixable kind) is almost entirely exclusive to either the R9 380 or possibly the Tonga chipset it uses (which is only in a few cards). You can certainly get Dx11 errors with other cards but they seem to be more one off issues that can be resolved. If you look up this error a VAST majority of the users experiencing it have an R9 380 so I think it's VERY likely that a new GPU would resolve the issue. It would be nice if SE just fixed the issue or at least communicated with us about it so folks could make an informed decision on whether or not its worth upgrading only for FFXIV since most folks seem to have issues only for FFXIV.

    There are no such thing as unfixable issues, there are only lazy devs who don't give a flying crap about their playerbase.
