crash wvw with high fps
Technical Support
Hi Belthord. – It looks like you’re getting Out of Memory crashes (you can see the “OOM” at the top of the report) which is due to a limitation of your 32-bit operating system. WvW is particularly taxing on your system and 32-bit operating systems have a sort of limit which is around 3.5 GB.
This is where it gets a little complex but the short version is that the additional memory can push your total available memory into negative numbers resulting in crashes or simply, “out of memory errors.” Some players have resolved this by upgrading to 64-bit operating systems and others have simply removed physical RAM from the system to bring the memory totals closer to values intended for that revision of Windows (32-bit). Obviously removing RAM from your PC is not an ideal solution but I wanted to give you all the information we have found regarding these issues. You can read more about this issue from Microsoft here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929605 but the important part is listed below:
“For example, if you have a video card that has 256 MB of onboard memory, that memory must be mapped within the first 4 GB of address space. If 4 GB of system memory is already installed, part of that address space must be reserved by the graphics memory mapping. Graphics memory mapping overwrites a part of the system memory. These conditions reduce the total amount of system memory that is available to the operating system.”
One solution presented by players being affected by this is to change the “Maximum pre-rendered frames” in the Nvidia control panel. To do this:
1. Right-click on your desktop and select “Nvidia Control Panel.”
2. Select "Manage 3D Settings.
3. Scroll down until you find “Maximum pre-rendered frames” and change it from “Use the 3D application settings” to “1.”
Once completed, click “Apply” to save your changes and try Guild Wars 2 again.
im sorry how do you get so many frames with a card lower budget than me gtx 660? i usually end with 50-60 in open world never mind the lousy 20 in wvwvw

I asked same question to myself and I said to me that it may be about the CPU.
I try to change setting on Nvidia control panel, but nothing results. Other solutions?
