I think it's time for a new PC for XIV since I'm now frequently getting performance-based issues when playing XIV on the lowest settings. I was going to have one built, here are the important specs:
Intel® Core™ i7 5820K Processor (6x 3.30GHz/15MB L3 Cache)
8 GB [4 GB x2] DDR4-2400 Memory Module
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 - 2GB
Gigabyte GA-X99-UD4 -- 4x PCIe x16, 6x USB 3.0, 4x USB 2.0
750W Thermaltake SMART SP-750
120 GB Samsung 840 EVO SSD -- Read: 540MB/s, Write: 410MB/s
1 TB HARD DRIVE -- 32M Cache, 7200 RPM, 6.0Gb/s -
My question is this:
The GTX 970/980 are coming out tomorrow (supposedly), so if I wanted to grab one of those two cards, could somebody tell me if it would work with the above specs?
As for my XIV controller issue - I installed the game on a laptop at work and had no issue with it. So I'm thinking at this point I need to uninstall XIV maybe and re-install it? I'm going to try playing another game when I get home to make sure it's not the 360 controller driver or something.
