What is this set? Does anyone know? I’ve never seen it before in my life, and I really want it!
I’ve had this same problem for a while.
To start with, I too assumed it was a hardware issue. I opened the case up, gave it a thorough clean to remove all dust. I tested the RAM, graphics card and CPU all separately, and all appear to be fine.
At first I just assumed it was an overheating issue (I had one occasion where it happened when playing Day Z) and ignored it. However, GW2 seems to do it regularly if I attempt any “big” event where there are lots of people and lots of particle effects firing.
This is particularly bad now since the update that removed culling, and I haven’t really been able to take part in the events because there are so many players/effects that it’s likely to crash.
I’m unsure what else to try anymore. I’ve played multiple games for hours at a time with no issues, only GW2 seems to produce the hiccups with any regularity. And after reading the forums, about how GW2 doesn’t use multi-threads like it should? Or something similar… it seems to make more sense.
