Guild Wars 2

Fyi when you SLI/CF two cards they only use the total memory of one card.

Also Lexandro,normally you anticipate if you are gonna SLI/CF or not so you pick up a PSU that gives you the headroom,which costs you like 30$ extra.

All that said SLI/CF can be funky in different games,but if all works properly you normally get a 1,8x performance(depends on the GPU though),some games that are optimized for it can actually achieve 95-100% increase,but it’s a gamble and probably, 50% of the cases you’ll be running single-GPU to get rid of issues that can occur.

On another note though,don’t go above 2-way SLI/CF since you just start getting diminishing returns

I think that the game should have the same system as gw1,so maps are divided into districts(kinda like overflows) which are region wide,this would make the maps a lot more lively and improve the atmosphere of the game,keep the worlds/servers only for wvw.

Another thing they should add is an actual player count(a lot of the servers that are high population are mostly ghost towns).

You definitely need SSD in there,it’s so much better.Just get a 128GB one for windows and heavy games/apps,i’d recommend a samsung 840.

No,gw 2 depends on single threaded performance (i think it only supports 1 or 2 cores,kinda ironic since the game is heavily CPU dependant),so intel is in a much better position(ex. a 8350 and an i5 4670k are normally quite equal in games,but in Gw 2,the system with the 8350 would run much worse).If you plan on playing gw 2 for most of the time i’d recommend that you get a laptop with an i7.

My 4 year old computer i got for 500€,planning to do some summer works this(next) year and buy a new one for around 1200€.

i3 540(OC’d to 3,3GHz-didn’t go further since it’s a stock cooler)
some cheapo 4+2GB RAM
500 GB WD Blue(might be seagate,cba. to open and check )
AMD 5770
LG E2240

Running on 1920×1080,everything high,with shadows on medium and reflections off,no AA since i use SweetFX.Character quality and limit on high.

~45 FPS in PvE

Up to 15 players it works normally,but 13 FPS in big zergs,lowering everything on lowest makes it go to 15 so yeah,just playing it on high xD
