Guild Wars 2

Like Gadzooks suggested, I too have been using the frame limiter option. My gtx 670’s were running in overdrive giving me 140+ fps in some areas, were using over 100% power and running close to 70 degrees and thats with 5 case fans at turbo setting.

Now, with frame limiter set at 60, they use only around 30-40% power and hang around 40-45 degrees and I can set my case fans on cruise without any kind of heat building up.

For some reason my cards go completely nuts without the limiter and so far GW2 is the only game that does that. Also, vsync for some reason didn’t give me the same effect, so I would definitely try out the frame limiter option.

GW2 has been running great for me since the 25th of August but I experienced this problem for the first time a few days ago during WvW (19th of September) and It crashed my pc.

Ever since then GW2 has had random crashes (corrupted archive warning each time) but the ringing sound hasn’t reoccurred. At first these were 2-3 crashes a day but yesterday my crashes became so frequent that today I reinstalled my OS and now I’m reinstalling GW2 right now.

It only seems to happen during GW2 though cause I had no problem with Sleeping dogs or Borderlands 2 at all. I’ve run memory diagnostics a few times to make sure my memory isn’t faulty and no errors were detected.

This is really annoying because I built this new pc just to be sure I could play GW2 and now it seems it’s the only game I can’t play.
