    However, if you're running AMD drivers, I won't be surprised you're having crashing issues, especially since you're going Crossfire. AMD always have issues with new games and their drivers are known to bug with new games ALL THE TIME (I had the AMD 6950 Crossfire & 7970 before). On top of that Crossfire bugs out on so many titles it's almost ridiculous on AMD's part. It's got to the point where I only trust single-GPU solutions now, which is why I'm running a single Nvidia 670, and had no problems anymore, in any game, ever.

    I can almost guarantee everyone here in this thread has an AMD card and driver.
    I have always had AMD cards, and this is the first game that has this issue I've ever played. Also, I know people with Nvidia cards that have this issue as well.

    I'm running a GTX 670 as well and I'm not the only one with a 600-700 series card having problems with FFXIV. I've tried the 326.41 beta driver and the 320.49 release driver. I'm now re-downloading the FFXIV client to see if a fresh install helps. I won't know if it works until I get home from work, but I'll probably try the 314.22 driver and the 326.80 driver if it doesn't.

    The crashes are especially bad looking out into the ocean in Limsa Lominsa, which is where I'm logged out now (crashes in under 2 minutes without fail). It's not my CPU, GPU or RAM. It's not a temp problem or anything else. I keep my PC very clean and am not having trouble running any other game. Consensus is that it's a driver issue and SE needs to work with Nvidia to get this fixed.

    I would say don't bother, I've tried different drivers, so did my nvidia friend. I've also completely reinstalled the entire OS and everything in hopes of it fixing it, with no luck. This is completely SE issue, they need to fix it.

    Has anyone managed to find any new information on this? Or perhaps a solution? Even after the server update this hasn't done anything. And I would say it's happening more, but that's probably because I can actually play more often.
