Second, you’ll need a working profile, which an awesome person named Blaire shared right here. I can’t figure out where the de facto location to grab this is, but as long as you search for 2.13, you won’t have problems finding a copy. To take advantage of this trickery, you’ll need to procure a copy of NVIDIA Profile Inspector. When tweaks work, they’re no-brainers to use. With a tool called NVIDIA Profile Inspector, you can edit many different options across a massive preset game list. Long story short, if a game doesn’t natively support SLI, it may still handle it well enough to be playable, similar to old games that happen to look decent at high-resolution. He informed me that I should be using a fake SLI profile, to which I asked the only appropriate follow-up question: “What?” It sucks to not have both, but multi-GPU support would have at least made up for the lack of DX12 support.Īt NVIDIA’s GPU Technology Conference in March, I ranted to friend Anthony Garreffa (of TweakTown) about the fact that FFXV pushes graphical boundaries, yet it somehow can’t make use of two different GPUs to deliver playable framerates at top detail, at 4K resolution. To be fair, Square never said FFXV would support multiple GPUs, but it sure gave us a massive hint three years ago that it’d have DirectX 12 support – and it doesn’t. With all of this, you’d think that the game had it all, but the first time I ran it at high-resolution, I spotted what Square forgot: NVIDIA SLI support. There’s even a massive 4K texture pack that basically doubles the size of the base game.
Over on the green side of the GPU fence, NVIDIA helped get a few GameWorks features bundled in, as well as a couple of personal favorite features: Ansel, and ShadowPlay Highlights.Īhead of the game’s launch, we knew that FFXV was going to be graphically demanding, and not to mention would support everything a serious PC gamer expects.
It probably goes without saying, but Final Fantasy XV Windows Edition is the best-looking FF game ever, and both Square Enix and NVIDIA jointly made sure of that.
