I am going to try this when I get home. Thanks for the find.

Good luck!

I've made a separate thread as well so other people will see it: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...n-Nvidia-cards

Benchmark still running without issues – I actually read the time wrong before. Has been running for 6 hours (7 now, actually), not 4.

Did not work. Another crash

Sorry that it didn't work for you. :/

It definitely helped with my system though – I left the benchmark running over night, haven't had a single crash in like 17 hours now. It's definitely an issue where there's no single fix for everyone (otherwise AMD owners wouldn't have the same problems).

Did you already try some of the other suggestions? Specifically:

- Disabling any overlays (like Discord, RivaTuner Statistics Server (comes with Afterburner, so you might want to uninstall that if you just installed Afterburner to lower the voltage – sorry, forgot to mention that))
- Setting the card to "prefer maximum performance" in the Nvidia Control Panel (you can also do this via a profile just for FFXIV so it doesn't apply all the time)
- Running the game in fullscreen

[…] And now I am thinking we could create a master list with things to change when you get this error - since different things seem to help for different systems ...

Aside from those three things, I personally also:

- Tried disabling my CPU overclock
- Reinstalled Windows
- Disabled game mode, streaming and all the other stuff that came with the Windows 10 CU
- Reinstalled the game (copied over an installation from a friend who has no crashes so I can ascertain that I don't have any corrupted files)
- Tried turning down the graphics settings to the lowest possible
- Uninstalled Dropbox since the current version has an issue under Windows 10 where it floods the event viewer (see https://www.tenforums.com/software-a...0-entries.html)
- Tried running the game under admin mode and Windows 7 compatibiliy mode
- Checked my RAM with MemTest86
- Switched out my 32GB RAM with a 16GB kit
- Tried several different Nvidia drivers (basically all that officially support my 1080 Ti) with several different configurations
- Tried disabling G-SYNC
- Tried connecting my monitor over HDMI instead of DisplayPort
- Checked all my system temperatures under load (all way down in the green, I have very good cooling and even applied liquid metal to both my CPU and GPU die, so I wasn't expecting issues there anyway)
- Switched to my old GPU (a 980 Ti – had the same issues, although it was also quite heavily factory overclocked, so my voltage increase might have helped there too)
- Updated my Mainboard BIOS to the newest version
- Installed all the current Visual C++ runtimes (you could do it manually, but I used https://www.sereby.org/site/All%20in%20One%20Runtimes)
