Guild Wars 2

Hey everyone.
I recently bought Guilds wars 2, installed it and was about to play….it lagged. I mean, 8-12 fps in the starting area, even with all the super low settings on.

I did my research and it seems my CPU is just too old. However…the minimum requirments say I only 2.0 Ghz..and I am running with 2.2
So you would think I would be able to play..at least on minimum.
On “canyourun it.com” it said my computer was super fast for this game, the only weak part is my 2.2ghz processor.

I’m just wondering if this is normal or if I could somehow cleanup/overclock it a little it to at least be able to play it…even on minimum.

Here are my specs.

Operating System: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
Processor: AMD Phenom™ 9550 Quad-Core Processor (4 CPUs), ~2.2GHz
Memory: 4096MB RAM
DirectX Version: DirectX 11
Card name: NVIDIA GeForce 8200 (Microsoft Corporation – WDDM v1.1)

I am working on upgrading right now..but in the meantime I hope i can find a temporary fix, even if it means playing on low graphics.
Cheers!
