Guild Wars 2

To answer all three:

Its in all zones.

@Cbuzz
Yes, 2.0ghz

@Rolo
Lowering the settings gives me better overall FPS, but the mega drops still persist no matter what. I’ve got high performance on and the power isn’t being shut off or anything so they shouldn’t affect it. It’s also got 1.5gbs of video ram which is pretty decent so that shouldn’t be causing anything either.

From what I can tell, the CPU seems to be jumping up from around 30ish% to around 50ish% or higher when the spikes happen. i dont know how reliable the task manager is though for monitoring those rates.

Forgot to say one thing, when the FPS drops happen they only last a few seconds then it goes back to normal, then in a while it drops again then goes back up. These drops are at the same time the GPU usage drops and goes back up so if I could somehow force my GPU to stay at a certain point, that would be nice.

I’ve had the beta drivers installed since I started playing so they won’t be making any difference, unless there are even newer ones that arent listed.

Ever since I bought the game, I’ve been having random FPS drops and I checked my GPU usage and it drops from 100% down to around 20/30% every so often and even more often when lots is going on.

I get 40+ FPS on average and down to 25/30 FPS when a lot is going on, but it goes down to around 10 or lower FPS when the drops happen no matter what is happening. I’ve also got a i7, 6 gb ram, and a 560m so before you say my computer sucks…it doesnt.

I would love for someone to solve this for me, ‘cause even though I can deal with it, it’d be nice for it to disappear.
