Good afternoon and thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums. We apologize for the delay in our response.

You haven't mentioned it, but have you checked if your laptop is overheating? Make sure that none of the vents are being covered up.

You said that changing the power options reduced the crashes somewhat. Do you have the laptop plugged in at all times, or are you using the battery? Do you notice a difference between those power options?

Go into the Nvidia Control Panel and select Mange 3D Settings, then Program Settings. Find Final Fantasy XIV and set the GPU to your GTX 1060 (not Auto). This should tell your laptop to use the Nvidia GPU exclusively for the game.

We hope we can be of assistance in helping you enjoy the exciting world of Final Fantasy XIV!
