    That's not how any of this works, sorry to rain on your misinformation but i have the benefit of coming from both hardware and software support and application development.

    FFXIV has no crashing or stability issues on computers that don't already have an underlying fault or configuration problem, and i know for a fact that a good portion of end users have been running a broken as such machine from the day they received it through the endless dump files and machines i've had the horror of diagnosing.

    I bet you were one of the folk that believed New World was actually causing 3090's to die (when it was a hardware flaw the whole time)

    Legitimate software issues are hardware agnostic (atleast between the same parts, settings and drivers), they don't affect some but not others.

    Many cases that turn up here aren't even GFX related, a broken sound driver can cause the game to throw a fatal directx error just because it has resulted in the Audio Device Graph service restarting to resolve an endpoint hang.
