Q:
GW2 and Windows10 Q:A
A:
From what I’ve noticed. Everyone is receiving issues relating to the win10 move. Blame nvidia for this, I can’t vouch for amd however. Very poor drivers atm. Anyone who says no issues is just not looking close enough. Or feel the fps they’ve lost isn’t worth calling it a problem.
From what I’ve seen “everyone” has an issue, lowered fps even if it’s 10fps lower over 8.1/7
I run an x99 setup slight oc, 2800mhz, 2 way sli 780 with a 1,000mhz oc.
I’ve noticed huge differences while playing gw2 I run 5760×1080 and previously I Could maintain 30-40fps in major populated areas like pvp lobby and la. Recently with driver 355.60 and win10 I’m noticing approx 10-20fps. Feels horrendous.
Playing is less populated areas like explorable maps throughout Tyrie I’m noticing 30-50 fps. Pvp matches approx 50 fps.
I’ve never noticed over 55 fps while previously on 8,1 I’ve noted as high as 90s in pvp matchss and explorable maps.
It’s also key to note changing to 1920×1080 I still suffer some fps hit at 30-40 fps in la and pvp lobbys. Still not acceptable considering my system should be playing Gw2 without effort with high fps on a single monitor.
I’m playing using windows 10 pro and I have no issues so far ^^
