Guild Wars 2

Hi, Just started playing on my laptop, I can choose almost any settings on my laptop are low render sampling and play perfectly fine, very smooth constant fps.

I can run mostly high/med settings with 60 fps solid almost anywhere, but I just got back on my laptop in a week and all of a sudden I am getting 60 fps but every few seconds-10 I get a weird stutter of like 15 fps… very very annoying, sometimes like 8 fps. This happens every few seconds. It is only when render sampling is native or super sample for some reason.

I have a intel i7 4700mq cpu
GTX 765m (just updated drivers and still doing it)
8 gig of ram.

My system is not getting near maxxed out in the game, like 30% of cpu, and not much memory or anything at all. just every once in a while get a dang stutter… any ideas?

I think that the stuttering comes from the new culling code. I’ve seen groups of generic models in the distance, run up to them and get a stutter as the actual player models are built and swapped over to. This includes hitting the HD for costume data. I imagine a standard 5400 RPM laptop drive would make what I’m seeing on my desktop even more pronounce.

Of course I could be wrong.
