FFXIV poor performance outlier on new Radeon 9070 XT cards!?

[Larirawiel]

have 4070rtx and have large fps drops in cities when congested. But this is most probably since I am using too many antialiasing settings + lightning which create a massive lag. Plus I am playing in windowed mode which also reduced fps by a lot. As for nvidia, stickto 581.08 driver which is the most stable currently.

The more likely reason is, the CPU is the bottleneck in high crowded areas.

More people in an area = More CPU cycles and VRAM used.


I have a 7900 XT which is the next tier up from a 4070. 7900 XT sits between the 4070 Ti Super and 4080 in terms of performance and in large areas i sit around 70 fps at 1440p but elsewhere I'm 180 static.


My CPU is a Ryzen 7 5800X3D.

The same happened when RDNA3 (RX 7000) came out, some games had teething issues.

Driver updates improve performance over time.

I recently upgraded my whole system. I went with a 5070ti, I was told a 9070XT was comparable for a far less price. Can someone with a 9070XT post their benchmark results with max settings in 4k, 3k and 1080. Here are the 5070ti results.

2180 = 18,262

Without raytracing, the RX9070XT is slightly faster than a RTX5070Ti. And FF14 does not use raytracing.

Title dependent.

Some games the 5070 Ti pulls ahead, some the 9070 XT.

but overall they're pretty identical

3k resolution range is 2880x1620 - 3072x1920 although 3072x1800 is more common.


2560x1440 is "2K" aka "QHD"

Indeed.

The premium you pay for the 5070 Ti gives you DLSS and the other Nvidia proprietary stuff.


My opinion will always be


If the price gap between the 9070 XT and 5070 Ti is < $100/£100/100 EUR then I'd go for the 5070 Ti as that's a small price to pay for luxuries like DLSS 4.5, DLAA etc.


Anything more than that - The 9070 XT is better value.
