Guild Wars 2

Still having issues… And i’m seeing alot of other people having sudden FPS drops too. It even seems that it is something AMD related.

Same issue here, but it started like 3 weeks. No matter what i do, 9 fps.

muslumgurseks.4951:

So you are having low fps issues only in guild wars 2? I’m running out of ideas tho. Btw by any chance you changed gpu slot while you were changing your disk drive? And also check your power settings it may be screwed and downclocking your hardware.

Well, yes it’s only GW2. I just ran http://unigine.com/products/valley/ on Extreme, and i’m getting an avgerage of 35 FPS. – 55 When not Benchmarking.

EDIT: Even after overclocking the GPU, it’s still exactly at 9 FPS, what the fudge??!?

muslumgurseks.4951:

Have you checked the temps? There may be some throttling in your system due to overheating.

Nah no overheating, CPU is at 50 C° and GPU is at 56°C

1) There is no such Process called “iehighutil.exe” , the GPU is only at 98% when actually INGAME, else it really idles around 0-1%. Also i’m pretty sure i got no virus, the system is only 2 weeks old, cause of the new drive.

2) It is on the new hard drive. I just booted from a old hard drive where it used to work just fine, again just 9 fps and waaaaaaaaaaaaaay longer loading times.
I also tried running the game from another harddrive that is not my boot drive, still only low fps.
This is really sad, since i just got time for some playing, but it is really impossible at that framerate. Every other game works fine. And even the Super Adventure Box works fine at 50 fps on ultra. But i can’t be playing the SAB the whole day

Have you tried repairing the game? Recently changed driver version?

Repairing right now, and i had the Driver 13.1 and just tried the beta 13.3, but sadly no change.
EDIT: Repaired, sadly still 11 FPS in the first sylvari zone on everythin low. i’m kitten .

Having exactly the same GFX Card and same issue! It used to run so well before…

I played GW2 since the Beta. It ran completely fine, it hat it problems with Lions Arch and Big Cities, but eventually after the Release i was getting about 30-40 FPS on Ultra.
Now since maybe 2 Weeks, the game is nearly unplayable. I didn’t change anything on my hardware besides a new faster and bigger hard drive.
But even on everything low i’m getting 8 fps in Lions Arch!!
Now i just wanted to try a new character, so i started a new sylvari, and i’m getting 8 fps on “Autodetect” wich is everything on high and native rendering.

My Card is the HD 6970 from Radeon (Latest Drivers)
CPU is the AMD II X4 965 Processor @ 3,4Ghz
Windows 8 64-Bit Pro
8 GB RAM

I just ran the Heaven Benchmark from Unigine, and i’m getting around 40-50 FPS, so it surely is something with GW2. Is there any fix to it?
EDIT: One strange thing, in the Super Adventure Box i get about 40 FPS on Ultra.!
And in Instances, even when nearly nobody is around, still only 8 fps.
EDIT2: Even in a small Window, i’m only getting 10 FPS. There surely is something wrong. I even deinstalled any Antivirus and the Windows Installation is only 2 weeks old.
EDIT3: Cpu is not even really used. It just goes about 20-30% Usage. GPU is on 98& though. Even on low. kitten?
