Tell me what's outdated about exceeding all "recommended" specs of FFXIV. Not minimal specs, but recommended specs.

I really want to see some fraps footage of you guys who apparently have no stuttering in towns. There are several threads talking about this, and claiming it's out-dated hardware is nothing but a troll response since you don't actually know my hardware.

Edit: Also, chocobos have an ingame model. More models to load, whether they are the same models or not, increases lag.
