Alright, currently my system starts are:

1 Gig DDR 3200(400mhz)
AMD Athlon XP 2400+ (2 gighz)
GeForce 6800 GT 256mb card

I've tried everything to maximize my performance on FFXI, but to no avail. Everyone seems to run it a little smoother than me. Is there anything I can try to do to max my fps or should I just wait and try to get a new processor soon?

His problem sounds just like mine.

2 512mb DDR sticks (I forget the mhz and am at work)
AMD Sempron 2600+ (1.8ghz approx)
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro
MSI K7N2 Delta 2 mobo

What I was wondering is if I were to upgrade my motherboard and processor, what would be a good choice?

Umm...the max FPS in FFXI is 30. EV4R. Because Square-Enix wantaru to make it look nicey-wicey for PS2 users...

So if you already heave 30 FPS much of the time, and you can check if you use the Archbell Windower via hitting F12 or the like...then you don'taru need to upgrade anything. I am usually around 29.5 with my Radeon 9800Pro and isanely hotaru and stupid throttling Intely-wintely 530 3.0GHz processor...1GB of PC3200 too...

If you don'taru have 30FPS, it can be a few things including the factaru that you are using an NVidia-widia graphics card. No mattaru what Square-Enix says, ATI cards will run it bettaru since they use the DirectX APIs bettaru and suchage.

Again...if you have a 30FPS, then you can'taru do anything to make it bettaru unless you want to h4x0r the game and mess around with hex convertarus and whatnotaru...

EDIT: Editaru for semi tarutaru talk because I am tired, pissed, angstaru, wantaru to blow something up and can'taru right now, evil, weak, and unfortunataru not very charming.

It's 2 sticks of 512. Yesterday I just lowered the background resolution and it ran great for a long while. Then a bunch of summoners started firing off multiple avatars so I lagged a little bit.

The lag of avatars is a known problem. Use ATI graphics cards;-)
