Guild Wars 2

I have the following set up;

RX480 – I7-6700K – 16GB RAM – Windows 10. 1080p 144hz monitor.

And at highest settings, in Lions Arch it’s at around 30FPS, without the shadow it’s about 40FPS and with the lowest setting its at 60FPS.

I know my machine isn’t the greatest but I was bit disappointed with the results, I just wanted to know that this is pretty much what I get with my setup or am I missing something? There is no issue with overheating.

Nah that seems about right, especially if that 6700k is stock. You can squeeze some more frames by OCing your CPU, but in general GW2 is CPU bottlenecked hard, specifically being limited by single core performance.

In general though, a higher end GPU and an i5-6600k would have been a mcuh better bet for gaming, if there’s any possibility for swapping parts out.
