Guild Wars 2

Hi guys ! Im wondering whats wrong with my computer cause i have some only 8 fps in big zergs in wvw. And im not even playing on highest detals. Its between medium and high.
I got:
Windows 7 64bit
Club 3D hd 7970 3 GB
I5 3350p
8Gb Ram Ballistix Crucial
Motherboard – Msi B75MA-P45 (really cheap)
Silentium PC Deus G1 500W

Any ideas whats wrong with my pc ? Or what should i upgrade? I thought its enough to play on high settings in wvw…

High setting in wvw? Not going to happen with 3.1-3.5Ghz, I’m afraid.

If you aim for that you should watch out for a CPU with free multiplier and clock it to 4.5 to 5ghz. You ought to buy another mainboard, preferably a Z89 or z97 as well.

On the short run you could start with decreasing the culling-options, shaders, reflections and texture-settings (especially the latter seem to be rather bugged since the last patch)

No. There is something that is borked in the latest patch.

I noticed a drop in frames from having multiple colored tags on screen and enemy name tags in view (have they changed the way it fades out Red tags from field of view?). Maybe it’s just me and my PC but a lot were commenting on significant drops in FPS last night.

Tspatula so u are saying that my setup is enough ?
