So- I just went off and tried that Benchmark thing that SE set up to determine weather or not your PC is powerful enough to run the game- this being the site-
http://www.finalfantasyxiv.com/media/benchmark/na
- and the "scores" that they set up are as follows:
[8000 and over] Extremely High Performance
Easily capable of running the game on the highest settings.
[5500–7999] Very High Performance
Easily capable of running the game. Should perform exceptionally well, even at higher resolutions.
[4500-5499] High Performance
Easily capable of running the game. Should perform well, even at higher resolutions.
[3000-4499] Fairly High Performance
Capable of running the game on default settings. Consider switching to a higher resolution depending on performance.
[2500-2999] Standard Performance
Capable of running the game on default settings.
[2000-2499] Slightly Low Performance
Capable of running the game, but may experience some slowdown. Adjust settings to improve performance.
[1500-1999] Low Performance
Capable of running the game, but will experience considerable slowdown. Adjusting settings is unlikely to improve performance.
[Under 1500] Insufficient Performance
Does not meet specifications for running the game.
Now, I just ran my laptop through their sick little test, and a recieved a fairly high score of two-
HUNDRED!!
This being WAY below what is considered Insufficient, therefore my rather new gaming laptop is now Crap.
Anyone else stuck with the PS3 version of the game because of low PC specs, or am I the only one God is messing around with this year?
