GPU and CPU score list from ffxivcore forums

[MelodicSoul]

Here's a nice thread about scores and purchasing upgrades or hardware:

http://www.ffxivcore.com/topic/7393-gpu-and-cpu-score-list/

Really nice, it has a google spreadsheet of a list of different CPU and GPU combinations. It will tell which is the bottleneck for the system using color codes, either the CPU or GPU.

Has recommendations, performance differences between different versions of geforce drivers, talks about solid state harddrives, etc.

The thread also introduces a power supply calculator, to make sure you have the right amount of wattage for your planned upgrade.

Interesting thing about hardware, benchmark scores, and what not... My brother scored really low on the benchmark, I think it was like 900 or 1000...yet he can run the game at average with little to no lag, and it looks wonderful... Which make me think that the benchmark recommendations are a bit high... I am going to test the game on one of my desktops that scored a 180...and I will let you know on Wednesday how it turns out...

Thanks for the link...that is some rather useful info...
