Guild Wars 2

My game is still crashing, currently running the latest Nvidia drivers. Installed due a clean install (Driver fusion). My card isn’t overheating at 50 degree celcius. And it still crashes.

1. Screen freezes
2. Gets back up with windows messsage (Drivers has stop responding etc.)
3. Game looks like the screenshot attached.

How can I fix this??

Well…you aren’t going to like the answer…

Your video card is bad – replace it.

If you have another video card you can install it as a test. The problem will go away.

Have you tried to play other games/stress the graphics card to make sure the card isn’t bad?

If the graphics card is overclocked, then I would set it back to normal clocks and voltages.

Yes, took the video card back to the store, they did a 24h stress test and it turned out fine.

If im buying a new card, what whould you recommend? AMD?

If the stress test turned out fine, and you have no problems with any other game except GW2, then there is no point wasting your money on a new card.

Because even if u did, the same thing will happen.

Try different drivers, Clean sweep ur actual drivers, full GW2 repair/Sheck, delete the “local.dat” file inside the Guild wars 2 folder in “my documents”. Try all this fixes before buying a new card, i would also recomend the HD7870 or the GTX 660 price/performance is very good, Nvidia has much more reliable drivers tho, despite AMD fans says it is a lie, it is not. AMD cards have serious issues with micro sutter and frame latency problems it is well known their drivers SUCK, even tho if they ever fix that, Radeon cards offer more performance per $ all the way.
Nvidia cards runs very smooth in most games 9/10 games Nvidia drivers beat AMD in overall happy gaming experience in my opinion, AMD gets more frames but at the cost of stuttering gameplay specially at low frame rates (GW2 WvW for example). U usually have to tweak AMD cards a lot, u need some knowledge of what u are doing, if what u want is something that performs well right out of the box without tweaking and stuff i highlly recomend to stick with Nvidia, if u are an advanced user then u can go AMD.
