today i installed gw2 on my gf’s pc since she wanted to try it……..BAMMM 70-80 fps in crowded place where i get 35-40 !

my pc :
phenom 2 940 @ 3.8 ghz
ATI 7870 OC
4 gb ram

my gf pc:
i7 920 @ stock (2,67 ghz)
ati 4670
4 gb ram

nice, very nice don’t you think? i spent 230€ for my new vga and gave my old one to my gf, and she runs gw2 better than me XD

the real important note is that my gf cpu goes 25-30% when running gw2, while my cpu goes 75-80%. i think this is the problem, but i really can’t understand.

There are definitely some optimization problems with the game right now.

I’d recommend posting this in the merged “Low FPS” thread to avoid clutter, and some people there would probably be very interested in seeing this:

I came on here to post something similar.
Recently, well an hour ago, i replaced my old Geforce GTX 460 with a brand new Geforce GTX 680! This beast of a grafics card runs everything smoothly, except Guild wars 2.

For some reason, I have no bloody idea why, it has lower fps than my old one. We are not talking by a small margin either, its drops are insane. I am getting like 20 fps in places i ran smoothly on 50 earlier.

I have constant fluidity in Skyrim, Borderlands 2 and BF3 and my max fps count in League of Legends is 500 fps, that also breaks the games moment.

What is the deal with this?
I spent ********* 400 pounds+ on a new gfx to lower my fps?
Response and fix asap!
