Intel's most popular cpu's are particularly well-suited for gaming because they have relatively quite better single-core performance, only 2-4 cores, and relatively better overclock-ability. Try to research what kind of FPS people get with the CPU you are considering, FF14 like other MMO's tend to use CPU a good amount more than other types of games.
That just it, its hard to find a good source on what people are getting with AMD cpu cause alot seem not using it. Unless I'm looking at the wrong things.
