The original Au Ra concept looked better than what they ended up with. The horns and tails looked cool.
Wrong!

Guys, I figured out how to make a GTX 970 cry. It wasn't even that hard actually. It thinks it's a real hardass when I feed it 1080p, then I kick it up a notch to 4K and it just taps out and goes home to be a family man.
I'm not really willing to spend another $300 for a second GTX 970 to do SLI and honestly I don't like multi-GPU setups, having played with them before a few years back. Unfortunately it's likely that 4K with solid 60fps won't be doable until Nvidia Pascal in 2016 with a single GPU.
Squenix still needs to make the UI freely scalable anyways. I'll wait.

The end screen is so cool.
I'm on a 2GB 670 with an I7 3570k OCed at 4.2ghz. Settings are maxed with occlusion culling turned on as opposed to off, since I can't think of any reason you'd ever want it off to begin with. I'm not on the latest geforce drivers, gonna update those and see if it effects my score.

I hope the horns for the Au Ra won't be part of the actual face and that you can choose your own horns for the final version..
Unless this IS the final version, that would make me a sad Panda/Au Ra.
I only like one of the female faces but I really do not like the horns of that one..

I was hoping for a dead Lalafell if you scored Low or something
Played around with character creator, ended up making an Au Ra that looks exactly like my Miqo'te right now. D'oh.
Dragoon AF2 is sexy on ladies in an eerie way, and all that without the belly window. Funny how that works.
Au Ra have some great hairstyles though.
But Yoshi is still a hack fraud.
Index files for game data are in a different format so you can't just hack it open with existing tools. Those crafty bastards!

Works for me
heh, still had the 2.0 benchmark in my documents folder. The memories...
My card didn't do so well. Really need to upgrade it at some point.
Still fooling around with the character creator, kind of bummed the horns and majority of the scales are linked to face rather than their own setting.

Scaly dragongurl waifus look okay, I guess.
Catgirls are still the best.

You just remade your cat.

I'll take dragon girls over cat skanks any day of the week
We get another fantasia with CE right? Might switch for Au Ra for a bit.
By the way, the fourth face on male Xaela looks so sad, it's hilarious. Got that droopy look.

They all look the same, if you couldn't see the ears or horns how would you even know.
Okay, from what I've discovered the two settings that'll give you the most performance are.
Occlusion Culling: On
And
Water Effects: Max (No Tesselation)
For some reason, even scenes with no visible water get much better frame rates with water Tesselation turned off. Granted it is a shame not to have it but I could barely tell the difference.

Always follow the tail
The female Aura faces bother me a lot, also i'm not sure if i can transfer the looks of my classes on them, since they all have some maritime-esque aspects
Directx9 works fine with, can play on near max settings and had an overall score of over 9000....nearly 10500. Directx11 caused a nuclear meltdown between my feets.

He looks so happy.
There's always a setting or two you can turn off and not notice, yet have a huge performance boost.

How is that i7 option? I don't know computers.
Also is it easy to fit in a SSD? Dunno how customizable this thing is.
I like PS4 but I definitely wouldn't mind getting to try out WTFast or parsers again. Also hate being at the mercy of PSN outages/maintenance.
Are there any possibly better alternatives to these Steam Machine thingies I can check out before Heavensward?

Go into Settings --> Other tab --> Allow looped testing without frame rate cap --> back out --> tick Loop on launcher --> Enjoy benchmark at max FPS and see what your system is truly capable of
The king....will do this when I get home.

Oh damn that Titan X score.
Oh since you're here Andy, what Gameworks features will be supported in FFXIV? I noticed HBAO+ is in, any chance of TXAA making it into the 3.0 client? Hairworks would be nice too, the hair clipping through everything is a notorious problem in FFXIV.
Also can you do a benchmark run in 4K, I want to see what the Titan X gets.
HBAO+ and far faster SLI support thanks to DX11 CPU improvements.
With DX9 max settings:
With DX11 max settings (new effects, plus improved existing effects):
Can't run the benchmark at 4K because fullscreen 4K DSR is launching in a window, despite Fullscreen being ticked.

Not impressed with the horn options all around though.

Don't think I'll change but if I did it'd probably be to the purple one. I can foresee a lot of that super saiyan swagger going about.
