I've found Can You RUN it to be trustworthy.

Tested my own old machine on it before buying GW2 and it made an accurate prediction.
(able to play with decent FPS at mid/low settings)

So my 6870 is dead. My backup is a 4650. What are some things I should probably keep away from (outside of WvW) if I hope to have any joy playing?

Big scale events (especially Claw of Jormag) are quite taxing, how is your cpu? If you got a stong cpu you might enjoy some WvW with much less eye candy.

I'm running a quad-core that's stock clock speed is 3.6. Stick to Borderlands, rather than EB?

Cpu looks solid, yes I would start from borderlands to see how it fares especially on zergs. EB especially SM can be pretty taxing especially when 3 factions are fighting for the castle.

Hey. I have been wandering if my lap top could run this for a while. Im not looking to run it on ultra and i dont really care if i have to run it on low. I just want to no if i will have good FPS. I will not be playing WvW at all. Im planing on mainly PVE and mabey a little PVP. Here are the specs.

CPU- AMD Athlon(tm) II P340 Dual-Core Processor
2.2 GHz
RAM-3.8 GB
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Edition Service Pack 1 (build 7601), 64-bit
Video Card- ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series

Any responses would be great. Thanks.

I'm wondering, has anyone tested GW2 on E8400? Planning to play at 1920 / 1080 with max settings (except shadows, shaders, supersampling).

E8400 4,0 OC
4gb ram OC
radeon 5850 extreme OC
WIN7

Anyone played it with similar rig? Im especially interested in C2D 8xxx series as this game is cpu demanding. Would i be able to hold 30fps in arena pvp?

[v2nkata]

Ok. My spec is :
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q8200 @ 2.33GHz 2.33 GHz
4 GB RAM
ATI Radeon HD 5400 Series
DX11
I can run the game on 20-30 fps in PVE, but when i get in wvw(fights with more than 5-10 ppl) or dragon fights my fps drops below 5. Where is the problem?

[lulzboat]

Can it work with low settings on my Laptop?:

Windows Vista
AMD Athlon Dual core ql-60 1.9 ghz
4gb RAM
Ati radeon hd 3200

and what is lowest possible display resolution in this game? 800x600 ?

[Spank]

Hello i know my computer can run it but would will i be able to make it at high settings ??

Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 975 Extreme Edition @ 3.33GHz
Asus GTX 570
12gb ram
