Guild Wars 2

My spec is gtx 660 ti,amd fx 6100 and 8 gb ram,getting 10 fps max with lowest settings in wvw,getting 9-10 fps at spawn,something is wrong but i really dont know what everything is updated and i just checked drivers

that FX6100 will hold you back with WvW Zergs. AMD is weak when compared to Intel for this game. Reason? Single threading.

Aside from that, you should be at 45-60FPS where players are at or below the count of 12. I would download GPU-Z, CPU-Z, and Coretemp. Make sure your GPU is linked at PCI-E 16X while GW2 is running, if not that would be one Major cause of your issue.

The other is to make sure your GPU Core isnt locked at 300mhz or 450Mhz (Cstat0 – Max power saving on the PCI-E Slot), GPU-Z will tell you this on the sensor tab.

And Coretemp is to verify your CPU is clocked right, and not over heating (getting throttled).

But even after all that, if you were able to find the issue and resolve it, dont expect much in the way of Performance in WvW Zergs (60vs60vs60), as it will tank your system down to 8-12FPS.

I would advise you double check to make sure that your processor driver is properly installed and that your video card is actually running at full PCI-E x16 speeds.
To check your video sub-system check into GPU-Z.
To check your processor driver; load up a CPU monitor that will provide you with a load chart for each core then launch an application that will load up all of the cores and keep them loaded. After about then minutes load up Guild Wars 2, you should see one or two cores close to 100% while the rest are running at somewhere between 10-30% (depending on your system). If that is not what you are seeing, your processor driver is not properly installed. Uninstall it, then install the oldest and try again working your way up to the “latest and greatest” or you are satisfied with the performance of the processor.

Processor driver? Really?

I think he ment psu drivers…

no, but seriously. OP have you ever tried unparking those cores? If not I guarantee it will improve your performance.

actually im getting like 1-3 fps in fights,doesnt matter how many ppls there its always 1-3

wvw cripples even the fastest processors. But you should be getting better than 1 to 3 fps.
use game booster to unpark those cores and you should see a noticeable difference.

unparking will help a Ton, But I also think it sounds like your GPU is locked at 1×. Install and run CPU-Z while GW2 is running, or just after it was ran, and check the mainboard tab to make sure the PCI-E shows 16x for the Link speeds.

Get fixs for win 7(bulldozer)

Get fixs for win 7(bulldozer)

This is an interesting post. I wasn’t aware there was an issue with win7 not being optimized for AMD’s FX-8150. And apparently there is a fix for it?

anyone with a FX-8150 use this and saw results? If so how much?
