Several problems switching to DirectX11
Post Body

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, pardon if it isn't.

So considering how DirectX9 will be disabled for FFXIV soon, i decided to finally bite the bullet and try to make D11 work on my PC. At inception it just wasn't working but I've since upgraded so I thought it'd be fine.

Turns out, no, I have several issues with it.

For the record the specs on my PC are:

IntelĀ® Coreā„¢ i7 6700HQ Processor

16 GB RAM

and NVIDIAĀ® GeForceĀ® GTX 960M.

Anyway, so, the two issues.

First, on both Windowed and Bordless windowed form, there's this big diagonal screen tear that appears everytime I move foward. This is not an issue on Full display mode, however, there's another quite big issue there.

On D9 I managed a full 60 FPS easily. On D11, with all settings turned to their minimum, sometimes it'll randomly dip to the 40s and stay there.

Basically I'm not sure what's wrong here. I heard D11 was supposed to improve FPS, but it's basically dysfunctional and with SHB right around the corners I could really use some troubleshooting here since they won't let me use D9 which has had no issues for me for the past half a decade basically.
