Guild Wars 2

Dual core runs games well and cheap, but I still would go for a Quad. GW2 wont fully utilize all 4 cores, more like 2.5ish, but it still leaves room for other stuff in the background to run.

So what do you think i should get my hands on? A i5?

WvWvW is very demanding of the CPU atm. Not sure what your personal definition of “no lag” is in terms of FPS, but likely you would want a better CPU and OC.

What i mean by no lag is, will i be able to roll/cast spells/escape smoothly?

Hello Everybody
I Came to Guild wars 2 on release date but then figured out my laptop was absolutely useless on playing GW2 ( Silly me didn’t read the specs :P)
So i’m going to buy a new computer and i had my eyes on the METIS.
My question is will it be able to play WvW with no lag? ( I do not mind playing on low graphics)
