    You missed out CPU load?, and what settings were those at screens at?
    (As your 570 is running a lot lower load then mine but then i'm windowed at 1920x1200, dof on, all max, Draw 8/5 and 8xAA)

    I need to get in game have a poke cos if we have is new issues since 1.18 and its not the loading lag a SSD would solve I don't want to give people duff info.

    Oh and you woudnt want a whole system on a SSD, SSD+HDD is a better overall solution.
    But I'm not going to here explaining why an derail the thread. (+ i need some sleep)

    Looking at some comments i have to disagree. I'm in Uldah as well.

    Unfortunately i don't know how to put CPU load in the image, AIDA64 has it but when i get to the game it disappears even with the always on top option selected.

    As for the SSD i totally would want it for my whole system: http://img.hexus.net/v2/SSD/OCZ/RevoDriveX2/cdm-big.jpg

    Speaking from personal experience, I had the load related stuttering when running FF XIV (as well as all other games) off of a raid 0 setup of WD Raptor disks.
    After replacing the mechanical HDDs for an SSD I no longer suffer from loading lag in populated areas.

    Well, if i'd buy an SSD would need to be for the whole system, like i said before.

    And if id'd buy one would be the OCZ RevoDrive X2 because it's PCIe, i prefer PCIe because if i'd get one that is SATA2 it would be in disadvantage because i'm thinking to upgrade Q1 2012 to the newer CPUs. So the motherboards would be SATA3 and i wouldn't be getting the full performance, anyway... i had to buy at least the 480GB one so it can hold Windows and some of my Steam games. Because honestly windows is also slow starting and sometimes shutting down.

    The problem is that the OCZ RevoDrive X2 480GB SSD costs 1400 in my country. :P

    I can get an SSD of 60GB for 70, but i'm not getting it just because it's faster and for a single game only due to bad optimization, which honestly is what's happening. Like i said before this is the only game that does this. And looking at some comments it seems to happen with a lot of people after patch 1.18. And again, i'm not buying an SSD just because of a single game.
