    Hello all I've been playing FFXIV on my R2, and have been wondering what my fellow m17x users configure there graphics to in the game.
    I haven't found any configuration I'm perfectly satisfied with, still messing with the settings.

    Greetings Jasperiel,
    FFXIV is a very graphics intensive game. I would recommend running a resolution of 1280 x 800 with no AA and high settings. This particular game has brought many systems to a crawl.

    Thanks,
    Gabe

    I have it on 1920x1080 with no aa, windowed, at near maxxed out. I get about 22-26fps in citys and 60 outside of citys which works quite well for me.
