Alright..so I ran it. I need to call the cable company a b itch, my DL speed is not where it should be (for what I pay for).
Any hoots..not sure why it judged me as a laptop? I 1st played XIV on a laptop, but currently play on a desktop.

Yup, you can tweak it for various levels. Run it at Maxiumum first and if that scores too low, drop down the graphics presets until it hits Extremely High. That's where you probably want to be playing for best performance.

Nvidia released an interactive DX9 vs DX11 comparison.

Well, there's your HQ grass finally. Bushes too. Wow. Doesn't make a lot of difference to most of the background, but the grass improvements really popped out at me.
