Let me now plz

I have to confess, I’m terrible when it comes to hardware and the like. So I can’t really help you there – but you may want to try this website: http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri

It should be enough to run Guild Wars 2 but running and enjoying are always 2 different things.
I know it’s always a matter of how much money you can and want to spend. The problem with this configuration is that it might be enough now. But what if the new expansion has bigger levels, more enemies, bigger fights. For low-end systems this always results in even lower graphics settings and less details etc. So at the end your great and beautiful GW2 graphics might end up as some low quality goo on your screen.
To make it short: Yes, it should run on this system but it won’t be lots of fun. Especially when going to world boss events it won’t run smooth.

To be honest, the specs you posted are some of an already outdated computer. Gamers would replace these computers now to get new ones.

If you want a system where it starts to be fun you should consider something like:
AMD A8 / AMD FX 8-core or even better Intel i5 or i7
extra graphics adapter like nvidia gtx 470 or even better 970
8 GB of RAM
and optional (to load maps faster) kitten-Harddrive.

If you stay somewhere in between these specs you should get a good experience. The higher you go the better it will be. And the longer it will take until you need a new computer.

AMD not a very good option, especially kitten CPU. GW2 likes a powerful CPU.

It will run, but on lowest graphic with 30fps.. And iam optimist.. U wont enjoy this game..

Add 4-8gb more ram and you will be fine.

Can you list some gaming pc you think will be good with the game and my price range is 400-500 if you reply thanks

Do you need a complete PC with everything or only components of which you can assemble the computer?
400-500 of what currency?
And in what country do you want to buy the computer?

I checked some computers in the UK
AMD Computer Link 1
Intel i5 Computer Link 2

The AMD Computer only has a quad-core (4-core) processor, that could be a bit better..
The Intel Computer only has 4GB of RAM… 8 would be fine…

And both don’t have an operating system, so you would have to get windows and install it yourself.

400-500 pound / euro for a complete system and good in gaming is almost impossible.
Because if we start to calculate: 100 for windows, 50 (maybe even 100) for case and power supply, 50 for harddrive, and that’s already half our budget. We still need mainboard, cpu, ram, graphics adapter, etc.
If you know someone who can assemble a computer from its parts its always cheaper, so maybe check if that’s an option for you too.
Or start with a computer like one of these mentioned above and when you saved some money, upgrade some components. Adding a better graphics adapter or upgrading RAM is something everyone can do.

400-500 what? Pounds, Euros, Dollars, Geese, Camels? Knowing your preferred currency would be very helpful.

It will run GW2 on high graphics just fine, don’t listen to bitter replies.

I run the game on an HP laptop with the Intel core i3, 6gb RAM , and integrated Intel HD graphics. With low to medium settings, I average 20-30 fps, dropping as low as 10 in high population areas/events. I still enjoy the game immensely, but appearance is not the most important factor for me.

400-500 US dollars
United states Columbia And i need a computer that’s already assembled

Add more RAM at least up to 8GB and a non intergrated graphics card. The 750 Ti is a good budget card.

These sites are generally bad, avoid them.

That should run GW2, although I wouldn’t expect higher settings or above 30 FPS. A dedicated GPU would help but you really need an Intel CPU to run GW2 well.

For $475? Really pretty lacking. An R5 230 is just abominable. Beyond that it’s all right, although I’m not sure what sort of PSU it has- that’s something that should probably be replaced. With a new PSU and a GPU it’d be pretty solid overall, a CX430+750ti or something.

That site is bullkitten.

I can’t run GW2, according to the site, but I am playing it right now.

Much better CPU, much much worse GPU. Upgrade to the R9 270 (free upgrade from R7 250x) for $63 more and the Corsair CX430 for $6 more.

Also note that unlike the first system you listed, this one does NOT come with Windows installed. That’s an extra $104 for Win 8.1.

Oh, wow. I didn’t even notice that. In that case, yeah, it’s garbage for $475. Nowhere near being worth the money.

Although, Windows is only $93 not $104.

You can do much better. Also, Cyberpower and their sister company iBuyPower are kinda scary… iBuyPower was actually started because CyberPower was forced to cease operations a few years ago by the state of California while being investigated for fraud.

But yeah, here’s 2 guys who build an entire computer each just last month for $300 that would run GW2 with no problems: http://youtu.be/x1JA24KCAjE
