FFXIV Benchmark

rig in sig and my score was 3376 at 720P since I cannot run 1080p
Windows 7 ultimate x64 with cat 10.6 drivers
 
I don't know what the fuck you guys are talking about. This looks substantially better than any other MMORPG out right now.
 
ff14.jpg


i7 920 @ 3.8ghz (P6T deluxe v1)
XFX 5970 @ 825/1000
Intel G2 80gb in raid0 x2
Windows 7 ultimate

Loadtime seems to be mostly limited by CPU as moving it to ramdisk didn't improve it much. I really wish they would add XF/SLI support.
 
Score @ 720p

~2995 System in sig.

Several times it would jump to 0 fps for no reason.
 
Here's what the scores mean:

[8000 and over] Extremely High Performance
Easily capable of running the game on the highest settings.

[5500–7999] Very High Performance
Easily capable of running the game. Should perform exceptionally well, even at higher resolutions.

[4500-5499] High Performance
Easily capable of running the game. Should perform well, even at higher resolutions.

[3000-4499] Fairly High Performance
Capable of running the game on default settings. Consider switching to a higher resolution depending on performance.

[2500-2999] Standard Performance
Capable of running the game on default settings.

[2000-2499] Slightly Low Performance
Capable of running the game, but may experience some slowdown. Adjust settings to improve performance.

[1500-1999] Low Performance
Capable of running the game, but will experience considerable slowdown. Adjusting settings is unlikely to improve performance.

[Under 1500] Insufficient Performance
Does not meet specifications for running the game.

Obviously nobody's going to hit 8000 until they fix the CFX and SLI support for this game/bench.
 
This game looks great! I was a huge fan of FF11 and I am glad to see they made such big graphical improvements.
 
This sounds like the ideal game for OnLive. It's not like an extra 30-100ms is going to seriously mess with THIS game.
 
2404 w/ rig in sig @ 1080

q9450 @ 3.6 | 4870 1GB @ 795/1035

makes my rig feel inadequate :p

just because it looks better then the others still doesnt mean the game looks good.. maybe its because im just spoiled with looking at dx11 video's/benchmarks where the peoples faces actually look like faces but ive seen better models in xbox games then in this benchmark..
 
That's not the issue. Even my rig has spots where the graph in the benchmark shows it dropping to 0 FPS for a split second. It seemed to happen every 10-20 seconds.

then what do you think the issue is? I have a nearly 2 year old card running circles around yours......but i have more system ram so it is not doing the swapping thing...just a thought

You guys have the same amount of system ram...

If there is any issue, it's just with the way it's monitoring framerate. The scene was never choppy or ever stuttered, just the graph was showing random drops. And just to note, your card isn't "running circles" around mine.

no, he does not BOV has 4GB which is half of what I have.....and with his setup he is loosing to a 4870 even though he has a 480 so you figure it out......... faster CPU faster video card buit less ram and he gets a crappy score so unless his video driver is the culprit, I am going to stick by my assesment of needs more ram.

sorry I was replying to BOV, not u but just so you know there were spots that the frames dropped down to "0" here as well but you could not tell it just by looking at the screen.

I left the CCC panel open on the over drive tab and most of the time GPU was 85% or less

I'm pretty sure that's what it is. The new DX11 stuff looks damned good, but they can't really develop an MMO around something that most people don't even have, if they want it to be popular. The game does look good, and I really don't think there are better models in xbox games. I don't mean to be objectionable but I would be shocked if I saw an xbox model that looked better than anything in this benchmark.

I think the day someone gets over 9000 on this wins.

Can't wait to try it out on my new comp when I buy it this week. I'm hoping to be in the high 4k area.

"The PS3 version will be running in 720p in order to ensure performance remains high quality, but the PC version can go up to 1080p if your machine is powerful enough as you pointed out. We also support multiple displays, so players can use two or three displays to show the game."


The wording of this is weird. If he's saying they are locking players to a maximum of 1080p then how does he expect to support multiple displays? Hopefully that sentence is referring to eyefinity or nvidia surround type setups and this guy just isn't using the terminology correctly.

I think it means 3x1080p, which is what nvidia is pushing as the max for 3d surround. Seeing as how this is TWIMTBP... not a coincidence at all.
 
Wow. How does a TWIMTBP title on a GTX 480 gets outperformed by a 5870?

I hope NVIDIA has a realistic explanation for this. If they end up purposely dumbing down performance on ATi cards, we're all going to know.

Well I scored a 4495 on 1080p with rig in sig. Really need a new HDD as mine is an old 250gb that was nothing special 4 years ago, I'm sure that's what's slowing down the load times.

Oh yeah for some reason I get 30k load time on a Raptor drive... weird.

i get load times from 19,XXX to 33,XXX on the same setup doing runs back to back so I would not be too concerned about it.
 
3197 on 720p in sig rig.

there is almost do difference between a 4850 and a 4870 in that game your score is only 200 lower than mine and when I over clock my card to 790/1100 it does not go up lol

I hope the fix multi GPU support
 
core i7 920@ 3.4 ghz
HIS 1gb 4870
6 gb ddr3 @ 1400

running 1080 I got a score of 2387

That's not even the half of it. The 5850 trounces the GTX 470. :(


Well it's not like I'm going to play this I think. (Still play WoW.) But still, it's the principle.

must be due to nvidia lack of testing on them. sure by time it actually come out they have it fixed the other way

5850's and 470's are pretty even... within 3-7% +-

480 more then 10% which is noticeable

nVidia has improved the performance of a lot of games with newer drivers, just like AMD, and with new drivers coming shortly from nVidia with the new surround feature and the game not even out I think we'll need to see a lot more before final judgment on the 480's performance can be made.

You misread, I wasn't saying in general. I was saying in this benchmark the 5850 trounces the 470. I'm pouting cause of how the 470 performs here in a nutshell..
