    Nvidia Driver 306.23: Final Fatansy XIV profile UPDATED

    Hello guys, do you know what this mean?

    NVIDIA SLI Technology – Adds or updates the following SLI profiles:
    ...
    Final Fantasy XIV – updated
    ...

    As far as I know, or at least what friends said me, FFXIV does not still support SLI.

    The fact that there's a SLI profile doesn't mean the game supports SLI.

    Edit : The changes are the following :

    In old version of the drivers, there was 3 profiles :
    ffxivwin.exe
    ffxivgame.exe
    ffxivbenchmark.exe

    In the new version, there's only two profiles :
    Final Fantasy XIV
    Final Fatnasy XIV Benchmark

    That's the only change. The name of the profiles changed. The profiles themselves are still the same : use global settings for every options.

    The most recent Nvidia drivers and XIV don't get along at times. Just a FYI before anyone runs to update.

    Thank you Randelmire!
    Hmm, but I can't find the profile anywhere... Should I add it manually?

    You shouldn't have to.

    Make sure to uncheck checkbox that says something similar to "Show only the softwares found on this computer"

    Sorry, I'm using the french version of the drivers. (Click on the picture to make it bigger)


    Edit : The menu on the left should be something like "Manage 3D Parameters"

    I had huge issues 306.23.

    Like my FPS went down from a solid 60 @ max to 10 or less.

    rerolling back to 302.xx helped.

    I had to use the new beta driver. The recent release doesn't get along with FFXIV. It crashes the game a lot!!!
