hey all,

i got a new graphics card for gw2 yet after the release i wasnt very happy with the performance. it didnt change much since then.

my system:
window 7 ultimate
intel core quad cpu q9550 @2,83 GHz
ram 8 gig ddr2
64 bit os
nvidia GeForce 9800 GT latest driver
onboard sound
mainboard gigabyte GA-EP43-DS3L latest bips

i get (on medium, most shaders/shadows off):
40+ frames solo’ing in the “normal” game world/indoors
25-30 frames in cities
30-40 in spvp
unplayability in wvw or when really crowded

btw changing the quality settings initially did not change performance at all, a patch seemed to help.

=> i expected more… its kinda playable (except wvw) but i get a headache which usually doesnt happen. somehow the game appears to stutter more than the fps would lead me to believe? do you think OCing my cpu to 3,2 would help much, i dont really want to get into that if the real issue lies in necessity for optimizing?
