FFXIV ARR Benchmark Scores: Now with Character Creation

[Shuichi]

Looks like OBS and Character Creation doesn't get along, but once you start running the benchmark itself, it should stream. I couldn't get character creator to show up, but the bench portion showed up fine.

[Ratatapa]

Works fine twitch.tv/neko_whippet

[Reve]

I'm having issues too. It's downloading at about 35 KB/s, and nothing else is having an issue.

[Shuichi]

Strange, now mine's working too. Fullscreen mode with game capture set.

[Ratatapa]

The Launcher and the game are 2 different Processus

Need to make sure to open the game before choosing the Caputre option

[Sonomaa]

yup mine works now with a few tweaks, thanks rata

[ArchDizzle]

My score jumped from 7400 to 9300 with a 7870 so I am stoked, also such a cocktease seeing my manthra in the level 20 body piece that would never drop!

[Ratatapa]

yup mine works now with a few tweaks, thanks rata

and thanks for the follow in return

I'd heard the Haswell processors run hotter than the Ivy Bridge processors when OC'd, that's why I went with the 3770K.

Here's my build if you wanna nitpick it before I put in the order in a couple hours.

One more greedy little question about my build before I stop dereailing: I've seen nothing but good stuff about that motherboard (assuming it wasn't DOA). Is that a good choice or should I be looking at something else?

The world shall be filled with Highland women, and it shall be glorious.

As long as you keep your eyes closed, it will be, once you open your eyes though... you'll hit miqo'te land reality...!

Downloaded the benchmark myself this morning at 6.4MB/sec (about 4-5min download).

Getting about 6.2K score at 2560x1440 borderless window, never got below 35fps, usually 45fps+ and up to 70's good enough!

[Sonomaa]

Ive heard good as well, actually bought one on BST for another computer Im slowly building for a friend

[tancients]

For shits and giggles. Runs much better now with SLI working!

[Deuce]

The 6970 appears to be a bottleneck for performance in my system. A lot better this time around, but still thinking my next upgrade should be the graphics card.

[Deuce]

:\ i dont even have sli, the fuck is ATI doing lol. like this isn't the 3rd most anticipated pc release of the year

I'm jumping ship to Nvidia for my next graphics card purchase. AMD has been lagging behind for the last couple of generations and I'm tired of it.

[Darunia]

Just did a little re-tweaking and ran: 9358, better than my original of 8250 something and probably wont get higher on my system now.

C'mon AMD. Papa needs new drivers for XIV. Would like to play at native resolution, but I'll settle for 1080p to get a creamy, smooth experience. Curse my 30" IPS monitor!

[Izzy]

Judging from the post above, I'd say this benchmark is heavily dependent on the GPU now, whereas before the CPU did a lot of the work.

My i7 930 @4.0ghz is arguably just as good as your i7-4770 (maybe even worse), yet I got 2k more points than you simply because you have a Radeon 7900 series and I have a GTX770.

[pnavaja]

Anyone here tried the benchmark on a laptop whit nvidia card? When i go to settings my gtx 675m is selected cant change to intel hd but when i run the benchmark it reads intel hd along whit my procesor so i sorta dunno if im gething scores whit intel or nvidia card.

As for the benchmark, it has a lot of things corrected, special effects seem a lot smoother from beta3 and previous benchmark its a shame they dint add new hairstyles and stuff to Character Creation i tough they said they wold.

6063 on a q6600 at default clock with a geforce 560ti in it and 4gb of ram. max @ 1920x1080, older drivers though
will have my laptop running speeds once it defaults to the nvidia card and not default intel

[Siya]

Hit 8k on the old benchmark. CPU OC'ed to 4ghz and for some reason it's showing my VRAM at 2700 instead of 4gb...
