Since guild wars 2 came out i have been playing it on a older laptop because my current newer laptop was being repaired for some water damage. Anyway on this older laptop i was getting 20-35 fps which was absolutely fine. I now have my newer better laptop back and for the past 2 days when i play guild wars 2 i only getting 10-20 fps and it’s very choppy and unplayable. I have been able to play games like WoW, BF3, Skyrim, D3, and LoL perfectly with high fps on this laptop, but GW2 seems to run horribly on it. Here’s the specs of my laptop:
Model: ASUS Notebook N53SV Series
Processor: Intel® Core™ i5-2410M CPU @2.30 GHz 2.30 GHz
Installed Memory(RAM): 6.00 GB
System type: 64- bit operating system
Windows edition: Windows 7 home premium
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 540M
I really need some help or suggestions as to how i can improve my fps because right now the game is unplayable at this point and i know this laptop should have no issues at all with fps.

Which drivers are you running for the video card?

I’ve tried 2 different ones, NVIDIA Drivers: 304.79 and 306.02

That sounds like a system that has Optimus graphics switching. I’ve had this problem before with games when the Optimus system wasn’t detecting the game as a graphically intensive program. So, it continued to use the Intel on-chip graphics instead of the 650M in the laptop.

Have you double checked the nVidia control panel to make sure that GW2.exe is set to force the switch on to the 540M?

No i have not, i’ll try to do that right now
