Forcing Nvidia card to run PhysX on GPU (in Nvidia settings) has made a positive difference in my FPS! Suggest people try that setting change!

CPU Q8200
8 G RAM
Geforce 560 video
Creative sound card

Can say that GW2 is currently the poorest running game on my machine. Frame rates in the mid 20’s are about the best I can do with max settings. I can get no large increases by using minimal choices (maybe +5 fps on average). Still feels like it’s bound to my CPU. Only getting about 20% usage of my graphics card, with 70-80% memory usage on same.

There was a suggestion to force PhysX (through the NVidia control panel) to run on GPU. Making this change seems to have helped substantially. Again, your mileage will vary.

Here’s a little something to help out maybe? These 2 were home built. They are identical in every way with 3 exceptions.
*The one that is crashing has 4 gigs of RAM, the one not crashing has 8 Gigs of RAM.
*The one that is crashing has a GeForce 560Ti, the one not crashing has a GeForce 560.
*The one that is crashing is using onboard sound, the one not crashing has a Creative board and on board sound disabled.

Hope this can help.

Disclaimer: Not suggested by Anet, your mileage WILL vary….I have tested the XP service pack 2 emulation, game is running for over 2 hours…..further update to follow (happy wife more important than proper fix…;-) )
