I get 40fps in busy areas and around 70fps in quiet places like the housing areas. I play with max visible characters and the game only gets a little slow around S ranks and I also play it on a 120hz monitor with the frame rate unlocked.

Hopefully this info is helpful to you OP
Ohh it is. Thankyou!

Mind you, to the others replying this won't be solely for FFXIV I would like to play other MMO's in the future which is why I was hoping to get a rather decent CPU and Motherboard.
