Pretty sure I saw some for mithra and taru females.

**Lokus** · 2013-08-01 04:06

Lalafell and Mi'qote females essentially received one new hairstyle which is just an older hairstyle with bangs. I don't know about the male characters but we pretty much got all the options in p3 it seems.

Went from 6723 on previous benchmark to 9291 on this one. They optimized the hell out of their shit. Good stuff.

I gained a little over 2k also. For some reason the bench still doesn't show my overclock. CPU is @4.4ghz, and my video card is a HD7950 @1050/1400, pretty conservative but with how the game runs for me I feel no need to push it any further.

My average FPS went way up also. I'd believe it though, considering how smooth P3 ran for me.

3930k @ 4.7 GHZ
2 GTX 680's Sli

SLI is working , benchmark seems to be completely optimized , beta drivers nvidia 326.41, double my score.

I'd probably get a few hundred extra points if I had turned my three instances of XI off before running it. It didn't use my SLI at all, either, so idk what the discrepancy is between myself and the above poster. CPU is @4.5GHz, GPU slightly OC'd but nothing major.

**Mistral** · 2013-08-01 05:38

So, I tried downloading the NA version of the benchmark and, for whatever reason, when I extract the files I'm told they're corrupt. Guess I'm getting the EU version? I can't even log into the Lodestone forums to post, so I guess I'll have to hope more people have this issue.

Edit: Finally! It worked after re-downloading it (again). Strange. Guess if it doesn't work for someone, keep trying? lol *.*;

**Alderaan** · 2013-08-01 05:56

CPU is @4.3GHz. I'll probably upgrade to at least a 770 at some point after release.

God damnit, this was posted like 10 minutes after I went to bed.... I could have stayed up for an extra hour, and had this shit downloaded by the time I woke up. With my shitty 1.5M down, this is going to take 4+ hours to download... fml.

Went from 8616 to 9722. Good stuff. Will test my laptop at work in a bit.

I wonder if they've done some last minute performance tweaks or something's just screwy with the benchmark. Got a ~600 point improvement on the benchmark over the last one at maximum settings (7200 vs 6600).

**xopher** · 2013-08-01 06:50

6 minutes for me to download at 6.1MB/s. I normally top out around 7 though so I wonder if it's capped on their end. Or maybe it's just gotten busier as it's gotten further into the morning.

**Adajer** · 2013-08-01 06:54

I can't get the benchmark to extract to my SSD (C: drive). I have all my downloads by default go to my hard disk drive (G

. I can extract the file just fine onto that drive, but whenever I try to extract it to my SSD 7zip encouters 194 errors and never really does anything. I tried copy and pasting the extracted files to my SSD and I get an error when I launch it. I also tried copy and pasting the compressed folder to SSD and then extracting and it gives me the same errors with 7zip not working.

I encounters this with the last benchmark, but I can not remember how I got it to work on SSD. Anyone know a fix?

**Ragnell** · 2013-08-01 07:27

All I get is Failed - network error

Considering my rig, I'm ok with that, not really planning on upgrading anything as the next time I need to do that I'm just going to build a new rig and make it top of the line.

Any suggestions on what specifically to tweak in the settings to get my framerate up a little higher? Not looking to nerf the graphics too much but maybe get rid of something minor to get a smoother framerate.

**Ragnell** · 2013-08-01 07:38

Weird, even on 3 different connections I've gotten that error

**Adajer** · 2013-08-01 07:42

^ all you really need is a new GPU, your CPU is really good. Grab a 760 for $250 or w/e they cost and you will gain like 3k or more on your score.

Beside my woes with my SSD, I ran it on my HDD and this is what I got with stock settings. Ill lazy man OC later.
