To begin, I run the game with these specs.
Sabertooth 990fx mobo.
AMD 6100 fx processor (6cpu 3.8GHz)
16 gig of Kingston ram
Corsair H60 Water cooler
SLI’d EVGA Geforce GTX 580’s (1536 mb. per )Legacy driver 306.02 – dx11
23.5" Asus Monitor
Corsair Graphite T600 series tower
TR2x Thermaltake 750w psu
Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.
I’m running the game at Auto-detect. Which is everything MAX’d. I turn V-sync on so I get no tearing in screen. ( so i’m cap’d at 60-61 fps while staring at my feet )
While I venture out my FPS will drop to about 33-40 fps
If i were to either jump into a giant battle or a highly intense open world event, of course my FPS will decrease, but by no means should it do so down to the teens. Not only that, but I risk a client crash as well – EVERY single time I’m in a highly particle fought battle my client crashes and boots me to desktop which then GW2 auto logs back in.
I know this game isn’t Battlefield 3. But to give a comparison on how this game runs to that game – I get average 80-90fps during explosions and full scale battles during the game…roughly 115-120 fps with me just jogging along.
My problem is the client crashing more so the FPS dropping, because I know this will be fixed in due time as well as this crashing. But I just would like to share the only inconvenience that hinders me from enjoying this game.
