What the hell does that have anything to do with my thread?

My laptop scored really low on the benchmark, but I still think it'll be able to run it. Many people also reported lower scores for ATi cards. Benchmark was made by NVidia...

According to the current requirements, I shouldn't have an issue playing it and even if it's higher, in the past I've ran games being well below the system requirements (an 8-9 years old PC) with no problems.

I ran it three times yesterday to mess around. I got three different scores. 5300 5500 and 5600.

and my CPU was at no higher than 25%.

So that benchmark is definitely off. I know I can definitely run it, but hopefully around the time the game comes. They release a more accurate version.

Where is the official "FFXIV VGChartz Linkshell Group" thread?

I'll be playing on PC

Sweet! I'll ad ya to the list! :D

Whichever has the LEAST annoying music

The Elvaan city of 12 drove me nuts everytime I went there, San D'oria I think it was?

Played a Galka and a Taru in 12 

Game starts on Sept 22nd for C.E.people and Sept 30th for S.D. people.

I'll be starting the 22nd, sucks that the PS3 users got a possible delay. But let's look at this in a positive light. They will not have nearly as many bugs at launch.
