You can OC your memory / cpu etc. Just be aware that it can cause stability problems. I’ve OCed my i7 and ran GW just fine

Here’s a great resource for video cards http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107.html

Every month Toms Hardware does this, it’s pretty nice resource.
What you want really comes down to budget and resolution you want to run at.

What i’m wondering is this. My motherboard by default sets my RAM to DDR3-1333. The RAM itself is 1600, so I need to enable DOCP in order to force it to be recognized as such, and then manually set my voltage to 1.5 or else it becomes unstable and I get BSOD’s. I haven’t touched timings, the defaults are all what they’re supposed to be according to the manufacturer. So in theory I could potentially fix this by rolling my RAM back down to 1333, but as you can imagine i’d like to get the performance I paid for. So is there something else that could be causing this?

I have hit this exact situation, I had memory that would only work at a slower speed then it was rated for. You said you ran memtest – that would be memtest86+? I had to run every test it had, and not just the defaults to be able to see the problem I had on that computer. It was intermittent, a pain to locate.

> There’s a bug in the story mode of some dungeons where only one player gets to see the cutscenes and the rest doesnt, usually is the first person who enters the dungeon, is there going to be a fix for this soon?

This can be avoided if the 1st person in doesn’t run ahead and trigger the CS, if every one comes in at the same time or the first person waits then it works fine in my experience.

I had this problem big time, ran memtest86+ and found a bug in my memory that I hit every time regardless of settings overclocked or underclocked, proper memory voltage or higher. I’ve sent in an RMA request, this memory is more then 3 years old but GW2 is the thing that has crashed far more then any other program.

Basically I wanted to post what I suspect was causing myself to crash out VERY often. Do download memtest86+ : http://www.memtest.org/#downiso and check your memory if you crash a lot just to eliminate that at the very least.
