hello, im posting a screen shot of one of my toons with the video settings and fps. Telling ya get driver sweeper and run it. Also boot in safe mode after you restart your computer to run driver sweeper again to make sure all traces of old drivers are gone , before putting new ones on. The amd software will not take them out of your registry as promised. Also download the game profiles for crossfire and configure it to run the profile when gw2 is started. You dont have to crossfire for the profile to run. Also try out MSI afterburner to monitor and over clock your card. Dont use the AMD stuff. Turn it off. Just run the AMD crossfire profile for gw2.

hello everyone , Im running 2 6950’s in crossfire with eyeinfinity. My procecessor is amd 940. My fps stays around 20 to 40 with max settings. I have noticed that if i turn down the view distance I go 40 to 60. If you guys are playing on a single monitor you should be getting at least 60 fps. If not you may need to get driver sweeper and reload your video drivers for a clean install. Also i use msi after burner to monitor and overclock my video cards. A bad install of video drivers will kill your performance every time. I always use driver sweeper to uninstal my old drivers. Then i boot in safe mode and run driver sweeper again to make sure the old drivers are gone. Restart your computer and install the new drivers. Also make sure your Windows power plan settings are set to performance, or you will not get the energy you need to drive your computer 100% . I also have 1000 watt psu. Make sure you have enough juice to drive your system or it will suffer. Hope that helps some of you out. I had to say something after reading this because i know its not a cpu or game issue. My 15 2500k system is down at the moment so i have been useing this old cpu and motherboard also 8 gigs of ram. Im playing with 3 24 inch monitors as well getting the same performance as most of you. Go to Guru 3d to get driver sweeper.
