Guild Wars 2

It’s very hard to tell from a distance, but a few things pops into my mind:
a: wich graphics driver version are you using?? if using the packaged one in your pc or card it has indeed problems. Thats why nvidea brought a new direver out a few days before game release.

b: im slightly worried bout you page file. Was this with the game running?? if not then there might be something stealing memory.

c: last off all your internetline. specially in busy area’s you are playing with other people, this information goes over your internetconnection.

I’m running an I5-2500K and a 460 GTX 1 gig system, 8 gigs ram, and see 40-45 fps no problem. The only place I see a drop is LA (23 fps) and the swamp in fractals (not sure how many fps, haven’t looked).

Go into msconfig, and make sure nothing else you need is running at start up. You can also see what’s running in Windows task manager.

Try poking around in dxdiag as well. See if everything under video is running as it should. Make sure your drivers are up to date, i.e. video, sound etc.
