Guild Wars 2

I am going to be getting a EVGA nVidia GTX 970 4GB soon.
I was wondering if this will stop frame rate issues when doing world events and EotM

My current Specs

CPU: i7 2600 3.4ghz-4.0

Motherboard: GA-Z77-D3H

GPU: AFOX nVidia Geforce GTX 660 2GB

RAM: 8GB

Running on Medium to High at 1920×1080

When doing world events my FPS drops to around 10fps or lower will the GTX 970 help keeping it at least around 30 during the world events and EotM?

Thanks in advanced

Probably not as much as you would hope. The game becomes CPU bound when there are crowds of other players about. And while going from a GTX 660 to a GTX 970 is huge for other games (like 2x) that are GPU bound, I don’t think you are going to get anywhere near that.

Upside, you should be able to crank up the settings to get more pretty without impacting the performance you are currently seeing.

Hey but this is me SWAGing here, there’s bound to be someone with a 970 to chime in, but I’ll bet most have significantly overclocked newer CPUs than a non-K (you didn’t say it was a K or not) i7-2600.
