Q:
Hi Guys,
As you may or may not have noticed, the game will throttle back to either 50 or 30 fps during loading screens, vistas and cut-scenes depending on the version of Microsoft Windows you’re running (7 or 8/8.1).
This is a game mechanic designed to reduce heat in your system however, for some of us who have adequate cooling and the grunt to run the game without issues it can present simply as an annoyance.
I’d like to present a working fix for this issue. Don’t attempt this unless you’re PC savvy and are comfortable with editing the Window’s registry. Incorrect entries may damage your Monitor. You just need to follow these steps:-
Once you have completed these steps, reboot your PC and then play GW2 without any FPS throttling during loading screens, vistas and cut-scenes.
Enjoy !

I’ve heard about those registry entries but have never tried them – so I don’t know if it works.
Anyway, those key values should be in HEX:
3c = 60 Hz
4b = 75 Hz

Great tutorial, maybe you should add a warning that this affects other programs too, since this is a global setting not just for GW2.
