Taking so long to download, does this one have SLI support?
Your score is just fine, we got almost the same and we have basically the same system, download the new beta drivers, they are from two days ago, it should give you an extra boost to your score.
I got 8371 at a higher res, so the drivers should have given me that boost.

Looks like my body is ready, I will try to get a friend to OC the cpu later on the week

Dat mining brought up some interesting stuff, including images about minions, LC/FC Crests, as well as icons from fishing and Arcanist skills. It's far too much to post everything here, so check it out yourself.

Also, crosspost from the benchmark thread

Rig:
CPU: i5-2400 @ 3.10GHz
GPU: GTX 660 Ti with latest driver (326.41)
Ram: 8 GB
Performance from the old Benchmark
Performance from the new Benchmark
I'm quite pleased with the new results. Will probably stick with 1080p unless I somehow manage to maintain 60fps ingame.

Um Arcanists seems to work as guessed, different stance or modes that allow you to use some spells while greying out others.
This character creation benchmark is built using the release version of the client, not the same version of the client from the previous beta phase.
Indeed it does.
Some interesting ones.

Minions:
Custom FC branded gear:
Carbuncle skills icons:

Isn't it a 32-bit application? It cant even see/reference that additional RAM.I upgraded from 6 to 12GB memory hoping I would get a much better performance increase.
...
still just below 10,000

I recall buying this on gmg a month or 2 ago. phase 4 is OB right (with no wipes)... and i assume early access is after that?
fuuuck, got xillia, mario luigi 3, and a few other things... might have to hold off on this for a bit
the 30 days you get from buying the game doesn't 'activate' until you start playing right?

One of the minions will be the hand cursor? xD
If it does then the performance gain is almost inexistant, for me at least. :/ ( tried with SLI on then off and the bench went from ~70 fps to ~66 fps on average )

$300 laptop, not complaining. Gets about the same performance as the PS3.
Nothing at all dude.
It absolutely does. I have SLI and if it is disabled my score is significantly lower.
Gave female highlander a go, think I'll probably roll with that for release
I had read that people were getting a boost in performance with the latest beta drivers from NVIDIA (326.41) but my best results were with the latest WHQL drivers.

It has to... the person with a 690 a few posts up broke 15,000. If SLI wasn't working, their score would be lower than a 680.
Well it did make me go from average 66fps to 70fps and the score went from 7747 ( SLI off ) to 8126 (SLI on ) with my 570 SLI.
So idk, but for me, the improvement is really quite minimal compared to what activating my SLI bring to most other game. ( but I know that mmo are very cpu dependent )
edit : downloading 326.414 beta to see if it improve my result ( driver version 326.19 atm ).
All I could think of was Nanoha A's the entire time I was reading that stuff.......
Wait whuuuut?
Is the character creator always set on max stats? It makes my PC melt. :\
(The second picture doesn't show it, but it easily reaches 100°+ when in the character creation main menu. Right now I'm trying with lowest configs possible)
Any tips? I'm pretty sure It isn't dust, I cleaned it recently.

The downloadable themepack is just a fancy rar/zip package. You can open it with something like 7-zip and pull out the wallpapers without installing it.
Short explanation. A 32-bit application, which the vast majority of games are, can only reference memory addresses that can be contained within 32-bits (32 1's and 0's). This caps out at roughly 4GB of memory. The application, literally, can't express a number large enough to point to memory higher than that. This holds true of operating systems too (so if you're running a 32-bit operating systems your extra RAM is REALLY doing nothing).
Soooo what I thought was my SLI 560 ti's, this benchmark ran at about 69XX give or take. Then someone mentioned that they looked at their SLI and it was not on. So I checked mine and it was not on. The Benchmark took an amazing jump in score.
That is without shadows.
That is at max. My 2 year old machine rocked it. SLI made a huge difference.

I know what a 32 bit application is
I was just suprised it was 32 bit, could have known though.
Does was my fault, 326.41 beta driver make the difference, I now get 15k score and average 150 fps... seems like I might even be able to downsample ffxiv ( until the dx11 client is released at least ). :happy:
Funny you say that. I got code emailed Monday and they said they would send a PS3 code closer to the testing phase...
Just before I was debating on getting a second 660Ti, but wanted to see how comparable SLi results were, and I think your SLi 560 Ti just sold me on it.
