Hi!
I hope that I am making this topic in good section. I have problem with amount of FPS. Currently my FPS is very low, and I want to upgrade my PC. My question is what should I upgrade, my CPU or GPU? What is more important? Now I have CPU – Intel Pentium G840 @ 2.80 GHz and GPU – AMD Radeon 7770.

You should probably do a full rebuild, but if money is tight and you had to pick CPU or GPU I’d go CPU, because GW2 is a CPU intensive game. And from what I can tell that GPU should be serviceable for GW2. You’d be looking to get into an i5 for your CPU.

your rig is not bad.. but not that much good and u need to get better in both.. your CPU is only dual-core.. u should look after quad-core.. GPU is not bad, but since u have enough good CPU, only better GPU will give u more fps..
i have no idea what to upgrade first or what would be better to upgrade.. maybe check your CPU and GPU usage while playing and then u will see what u need more.. for CPU check taskmanager, for GPU u can try MSI Afterburner
and dont forget to get at least 8GB of ram..

You should upgrade your CPU. Why? First of all it’s a dualcore second of all, it only runs at 2,8Ghz.
Also, since your CPU isn’t that old you may not even need to upgrade your mainboard.
In your case, your CPU is using a 1155 socket which means you could buy an i5 3750 (k) for example for a decent performance boost.
