    The steps I went thru'

    Just in case there would be a slightest change that someone might get their rig to work with FFXIV. All I did to my PC while I was trying to fix this crash issue:

    1. Went thru' different nvidia drivers, old to newest ones.
    -(safe mode: uninstall -> boot -> install -> boot) Still crashing.

    2. Adding volts to GPU.
    -(+12mV) Still crashing.

    3. Turning my CPU turbo off to prevent some magical issues?
    -(i7 3770k, disabling turbo from bios) Still crashing.

    4. Switching GPU from 1st PCI-E slot to 2nd slot.
    -(Some motherboards might have issues with 1st slot) Still crashing.

    5. Updating Win 7 to latest updates.
    -(Just in case of windows magics?) Still crashing.

    6. Unchecking 'depth of field' + GPU tweaks.
    -(Unchecked 'depth of field' from FFXIV.)
    -(Setting POWER TARGET to 110% and lowering GPU clock with -50Mhz with EVGA Precision X) No crashing.

    7. Installed the newest nVidia drivers.
    -(From safe mode. Version: 327.23) No crashing.

    8. Returning GPU to 'stock' state.
    -(My power target is currently 105% and GPU clock -15Mhz) No crashing.

    Sum up (as current situation):
    -Windows updated.
    -Latest nVidia drivers.
    -GPU on 2nd PCI-E slot
    -GPU Power target: 105%
    -GPU underclocked by 15Mhz
    -No added volts for GPU
    -CPU Turbo enabled
    -Depth of field unchecked from FFXIV (disabled)

    I'll try to return my GPU to stock state soon and test does it have any effect. Althou', -15Mhz shouldn't make any differense. (Not sure of the power target setting)
