Question about Benchmark ratings

[Dsherman]

I am on Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) with Intel Core i7 X 980 3.33GHz, 12gig RAM with NVIDIA Geforce GTX 650 connected to a HDTV via a HDMI cable with 1920x1080 resolution on the Desktop.

The system is about 2.5 years old (bought only a little bit before the V1.0 Open Beta) though the graphic adapter is newer because the original one had a fan that went bad (and I wanted a little better graphic performance anyway). The graphic adapter is still not the very best around, but it seems to be ok for what I do with it. The CPU was one of the best at the time I bought the machine, but of course there are better ones around now.

I hope that's enough to evaluate.

Your fine i have a 450GTS and play at max on 1440x900 if you get into beta. Just see what setting you can play at a 650 is powerful enough for FFXIV if my 450GTS is doing ok i think your 650 would do better.
