    Exclamation Guild Wars 2 Computer & Performance thread.

    Hey as I've seen people wondering whether their computer will run Guild Wars 2 I decided to make a thread about it to save people asking in different threads so to see whether it'll run it post your specs here and hopefully we'll get answers to start here's my spec:

    Operating System:Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit
    RAM (Memory) : 4GB
    CPUProcessor): AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+ 2.2GHz
    Direct X:11 (I can't run it but it says I have it o_O)
    GPU (Graphics card): Nvidia GeForce 9500GT

    If you don't know how to find your specs go on to the start menu on Windows and on search type in "Dxdiag"

    I hope this thread helps people.

    You should be able to handle it fine on medium/high.

There cant be any answers given to this yet since they havent said much, but ill leave this here.
    I was just trying to see if it was worth it to replace my GPU as the chart made it seem very daunting that my machine would even play Gw2. Sorry if it looked like a gaming PC brag thread.

    Yeah... Jumping the gun a little, OP. No one knows the specs yet, best to wait until NDA is lifted later this month. That being said, ANet devs have stated multiple times that the game will run on a wide range of computers but I'm guessing you will need a high end machine to run it a maximum.

    All you will need is a good dx10 computer, becouse it wount even support dx11, if you have one of those your fine.

    Anything with a powerful dual core (i3 2100+) and a 560ti+ can run any game on ultra at 1080p (assuming vram isn't an issue, e.g. BF3)

    It was a joke.
    My specs are in my sig, figured it would be pointless to actually post them.
    I also consider this thread pretty pointless though, to, seeing as there are no system specs out for GW2 currently and the only way to know if you can run it is by asking someone who works at Arenanet and knows the system requirements. >.>

    6GB RAM
    i5 2430m @ 2.40GHz
    GT555m

    Lenovo y570 if anyone's wondering, laptop.

    So?
    Why am I back here, I don't even play these games anymore

    The problem with the internet is parallel to its greatest achievement: it has given the little man an outlet where he can be heard. Most of the time however, the little man is a little man because he is not worth hearing.

    Yeah, I was sort of aiming for a joke myself.
    And yes, as for now, this thread is pointless. But I can see its uses when system requirements are being released.

    Don't think anyone knows yet. Wondering about the same for CrossFire. But I guess it will.

    It supports multi display surround 3D, so I'll hazard a guess to say yes it supports SLI.
