Hi, I am using

CPU: Intel® Core™2 Quad Processor Q6600
RAM: 8Gb DDR2
GPU: nVidia Geforce GTX 260 Core 216
Window: Window 7 64 bit

How good if i run with this specs?

And also when i tried the Weekend beta i seem to get lag on the graphic side even with low settings.

Would appreciate if you can advice me.

Thanks

Low-Med settings at around 30fps. Maybe a little more if they continue to optimize the game.

As of right now, the game is currently mainly CPU dependent. Thus, we literally have no idea on what their specifications are, but this is a good reminder to know that if you're running the game at around 10 - 20 fps on med or max settings, once Arenanet optimizes their system, it should be a drastic improvement. At least, thats what I think!

Ok I hate to resurrect a dead thread - but can this run it (getting this computer from a friend who doesn't need it anymore )

AMD Quad-Core A6-3620 Accelerated Processor
AMD Radeon HD 6530D
8GB PC3-10600 DDR3 SDRAM

I think it would at least run the minimum - but what about maxing any settings (or at least middle grounding it?)

Edit: oh and windows 7 hahaha

Will my computer run it?

RAM (Memory) : 6144mb
CPUProcessor): Intel Core i5-2140M 2.30GHz (4CPUs)
Direct X Version: 11
GPU (Graphics card): I don't know? here's a screenshot...

They will will definitely run it. I can't tell you how well they will run it though, but if it continues to be optimized I would say at least medium.

I love GW2, but this game is going to suffer badly due to the minimal requirement. Anyone can play WoW, and that's something WoW does better than GW2.

A game that comes out in 2012 SHOULD have higher requirements than a game to come out in 2004. ^^

[Fencers]

That's kinda silly. WOW is 7 years old and it's engine is based off the Warcraft 3 engine. Warcraft 3, the RTS.

There is a market large enough not playing games on 10 year old PCs to support Tera, Guild Wars 2, Rift... or any game with slightly modern graphics*.


*I say slightly modern because MMOs still look like shit compared to other genres w/ pretty low reqs as is.

Hey again, guys!

I have been looking up laptops lately, because i need it for "school". And while schoolwork is fine, i guess, playing Guild Wars 2 when i'm supposed to be taking notes sounds better.

I've stopped on this : Toshiba L750-1NM

It seems quite alright, for the somewhat low buget i have. I did run GW2 during the stress test, it it's not-really-optimized state, on a similar laptop, and while it wasn't silky smooth, it was quite playable. What do you think of the Toshiba? The Video card seems pretty powerful for a laptop, am i correct? Would i be able to run the game at a decent level?

[grandpab]

The graphics card appears to be below the min reqs actually, and the processor isn't much better than the min reqs.

Main bottleneck you will have with is the 2.10 GHz dual core Pentium.
Try to get an i3 or i5 if you can.

Taking the Toshiba price of €475 from here, you can get this Dell for only €35 more and it has a better CPU and better graphics.

Yeah sorry about the language, i actually had difficulties making google show me non-bulgarian websites.

Sadly i won't be able to afford anything more expensive than this. I did manage to run the game on an HP Compaq Presario CQ57, and granted, it was on low settings, the game was playable. I've accepted that i won't be playing it on medium or high graphics, i just want it to run somewhat decently.

If i can get medium at 40 fps ill be estatic.

Hey there. I'm an idiot when it comes to computers, so could someone help me out please?

Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
RAM (Memory) : 2048MB
CPU (Processor): AMD Athlon(tm) II X2 215 Processor (2 CPUs), ~2.7GHz
Direct X:11
GPU (Graphics card): Nvidia GeForce 6150SE nForce 430

I'm pretty sure I'll need a new graphics card - Any suggested cards would be really appreciated - but my main wonder is if my computer can run it even with a new graphics card?

Thanks a lot for any advice
