Guild Wars 2

Similar issue, haven’t checked my CPU usage but I also get random FPS drops for around 10-15 seconds at a time.

I can note however that during this time my GPU usage goes down to about 50%, returning to 100% after a little bit.

I can play every other new game on max or near max settings at 1920×1080 without this problem ever occuring.

CPU: i7 3610QM
GPU: GTX 670m (3GB GDDR5)
RAM: 12GB DDR3
HDD: 2 × 750GB 7200RPM (RAID 0)

Spitfire.4589:

My specs as follows:
16 gig ram
i7-3610QM @ 2.3 or 3.1 GHZ (Turbo)
Nvidia 670m

The performance is very inconsistent. I can be fighting with 50 people and the fps can be at 50 fps. But staring at a blank wall my fps can drop to 25fps and goes back to 80fps. Also by using the MSI afterburner tool, I notice that my GPU usage is going up and down (from 25% to 90%) When GPU usage is at 25% the framerate gets terrible.

As this is a laptop I have done the following:
Made sure Laptop is plugged in.
Used high perfomance power settings.
Selected Nvidia display adapter as the main device and put the power settings to max performance.

I am using the beta driver 306.02 but there’s not much improvement. Please help the game does not seem to be using the GPU correctly. I have used Batman and etc.. and with the MSI afterburner tool the GPU usage ranges from 80-90% which is correct.

I have the same MSi laptop, well – a slightly earlier release one that only uses the 670m but I have the exact same problem, randomly out of nowhere my fps drops, 10 seconds later it goes back up. Seems completely unpredictable but its frequent enough to annoy me to no end. Have you had any luck?

I get this too, except my laptop is a lot newer.

The laptop is an MSI-GT70, specs are:

Intel i7 3610QM
12GB RAM
Nvidia GTX670m 3GB GDDR5

Doesn’t matter what graphics settings I have, I can play the game at 60 fps at max and randomly, out of nowhere my fps will drop to like 15, regardless of what im looking at, what im doing or where I am.

About 10 seconds later my framerate goes back up to 60, super frustrating.

My FPS is normally around 50-60 and then randomly, no matter where I am – even staring at a wall in an empty area my fps will drop really low, then back up to normal around 10-15 seconds later.

I get the exact same problem as you, using a gaming laptop aswell.

My FPS is normally around 50-60 and then randomly, no matter where I am – even staring at a wall in an empty area my fps will drop really low, then back up to normal around 10-15 seconds later.
