I posted the other day about lag issues.
I have figured out my problem.

My FPS is incredibly low.

It can go form 30 fps, to 25, all the way to down 10 sometime even 8 or 6 fps.
This happens standing around doing absolutly nothing. It dose every two minutes or so. I can be in Smooth Game play mode, and then all of a sudden this happens.

I have included a screenshot of my GPU specs

I run on an AMD phenom x3 Black 2.4 ghz
DDR2 RAM 4gigs

  • Is that GPU-z screenshot while running GW2? PCI-E is running at 1.1 which should be 2.0 or higher.
  • If it happens on regular interval check background process taking up CPU cycles.
  • Post game advisor logs
  • See Part 4.1 here for info/tools to troubleshoot

thats the same screen weather im in game or not.

I just found out that my Mobo apparently only supports PCI-E 1.1

But this should still not cause too much a problem. When the game first came out it ran fine. I stopped for a while, and i cant even enjoy playing it on medium graphics with it going to 8fps to 30 or 40 out of no where.

Is there anything i can do…

Every machine is different, you’re going to have to troubleshoot it piece by piece.

You said it work fine before, but now it doesn’t. So something is different. Fresh installation of OS/drivers/gw2 is quickest route to rule out software issues/conflict/corruption. After that move to swapping in/out hardware parts to test.

If you want more help list what things you have already tried doing to troubleshoot.

That CPU is also kind of slow for GW2, if buy a new mobo get a new CPU aswell, depending on how much are u willing to pay there are several viable options for this game.

The game is broke, end of story until there’s a patch ‘doubtful’ expansions will sell very bad, and ps4 and nextbox will be out and nobody cares anymore.
