Older/Low end computer users post here !

I am making this post to help low end /older computer users . I want to say that I have a 5 year old computer that just barley makes minimum spec to play . However arena.net are such genius that even though my old ass computer is older then dirt I can play there game so don't let that stop you . If you make the minimum specs it is worth the purchase .

The game says you need 25 gigs of space but actually you only need like 18 ...I dunno why it says 25 .

Are you coming from wow or another MMO ?? It's ok yes this game is different but in a good way . Your going to love the personal story your character has . The world is dynamic and will draw you in . This game is better then the best new MMo like Dragons nest or Teria or whatever its called . This game has depth and imagination like no other .

Ive played every other MMO out there except world of tanks and some other shyt MMO's ... I have always went back to WOW because wow is a fine gem ..polished and wonderful...however Guild wars 2 is more wonderful and it's new so that is my thoughts hope it helps someone .

2 GB DDR2 667MHz
GT 440 1GB GDDR5
AMD 64 Dual Core clocked to 2.4GHz
Windows 7 64 bit

I have no idea how it will run now, during the beta weekends it ran smooth on medium but then at times would fall down to 15 fps constant.

My PC is from late '08:

8 GB DDR2 1066MGz
HD5970 2GB DDR5 (upgraded later, I believe in end '09, begin '10)
Intel i7-920 2.66 GHz
Windows 7 64-bit
Also uses 2x SATA II SSD, one for OS, other for gaming, I believe the read/write specs are around 250MB/s of both.

This runs the game smooth 1920x1080.

All by all, the system is going to be old for the other stuff I need to do for work. So in 1 or 2 weeks I get a new setup.

Get 4 gigs of RAM, will make a solid difference.
Else it's just fine.
