- At this point the game appears to be poorly optimised for dual ATI graphics cards in Crossfire X at least, with essentially no improvement in performance running two cards over the one. Hopefully ATI will make a specific Crossfire X application profile for GW2 and / or support is improved for multiple ATI video cards on Crossfire X soon!

i havent really been able to tell a difference except longer load times when traveling between way points.

as for fps, i havent really bothered checking these often, but the last time i had evga precision x running, it stated 80fps. overall i am very impressed with how my machine runs this game. i have not one single complaint. its like a dream

Game consistently runs north of 130 fps, I always have max graphics/resolution on.

I run everything on max except for Native sampling instead of supersample. I’ve never seen it drop below 35 no matter where I was or how many spells were going off at once.

Nice to see some people using laptops like me lol.

So wish I could change the GPU not just for GW2 but for more GPU based games, But the sad reality is I can’t without replacing the whole motherboard which is like as much as the laptop was bought for originally :/

I use native sample as well, there wasn’t any point using supersample. It makes the game look a bit getter but isn’t worth dropping FPS for it.

Nice rig. I use the native resolution as well, I have to say I am happy with my GPU (Gt525m) and CPU (i7 2670QM) and the way they’re handling it but if they could improve performance for the Nvidia drivers I would be grateful.

Agreed, post-processing is something I really dislike. For me it makes the game look more like a movie than a game, and AA is always off, it takes way too much memory from my 1GB gt525m.
