Guild Wars 2

If it is Pricer/perfomance you are affter stay away from the Bulldozer CPU’s

When it comes to games like GW2 or WoW are very CPU intensive, the Bulldozer CPU’s beacuase of there design are slower for gaming even compared to Intels old core 2 quads and there own Phenom 2 quad/ hex cores.

Basicly unless you have lots of programs that will use all 8 cores on a FX 8150 then there not worth the price

Your best bet for your curent mobo would be a q9650 @3ghz which you can pick up from ebay for around £100/150, or if you wanted to upgrade curently the best 2 CPU’s on the market for gaming are the i5 2500k/3570k.

They don’t cost much more than the FX 8150 not much differance in perfomance between the i5 2600k/3570k less than 5% in most things so just go with which ever one is cheapest.

Thats good if both cards are maxed out on your 6990 means your getting perfect crossfire scaleing, 80*c is fine for a 6990 aslong as your not going over 90*c then I wouldn’t worry to much tbh

My girlfriend is runnning a 5770 @1900x1200 and has no problems running the game what so ever.

Which driver are you useing and have you tried installing the CAP’s profiles aswell?

If you are useing the 12.8 driver try the 12.7 beta driver instead, also make sure you download and install the CAP’s driver aswell.

And what temps are you getting on your CPU and GPU when gamming?
