Anything beyond 60 FPS is a waste since you’ll barely notice any difference at all. I can make GW2 run at 120FPS very easily with my rig (I’m a VFX/CG artist) but the only difference I can tell is that my GPU fan is spinning faster than normal and my PC is getting hotter than normal, that’s it.

while this may be true, you’re always going to have the one dude who’s like LOOK AT MY UBER RIG PEOPLE!!!!

Very ture. But then I tell them the specs on my rig and they shut up real quick. Funny part is I built this rig for work, not for gaming, just so happens my work and gaming share the same components

and since it’s for work I can respect that. What I don’t understand are those people that get 80FPS in a game….spend $400 in new parts, and then at the end of it all get a whopping 81FPS and say they can totally see the difference -_-

but I know what your saying about your PC lol I built mine for everyday use, but it’s not afraid to get work and gaming done. Heck, when I build mine the parts were brand new but they were out in circulation for almost 1-2 years! And yet my little “old” AMD B60 quad core and my “old” Nvidia GTX460 has less problems running games than my friends who build these monsters that require an installment loan and possibly a kidney

Non amd cpu will blow intel in gw2 so if you plan to build the cpu for guild wars mainly go with intel.

I lol’d =p my AMD phenom II x4 @ 4.0Ghz plays this game flawlessly....and this is with a GTX 460 gpu. Heck, even when I had it clocked only to 3.5Ghz, and then 3.7Ghz it still played great. never went below 35 fps in very crowded areas, and in every other place 80 FPS+

my rule of thumb is any processor under 3.0 Ghz isnt gonna run this game well. Also, your GTS 250 really isnt a card meant for graphic intensive games....sorry...
