Dawdler.8521 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 The next generation AMD graphics cards that supposedly beat the RTX3000 series are literally days away from release (28th) so I'd suggest you put a hold on that thought. Probably gonna shake up prices either way it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zHidden.2047 Posted October 25, 2020 Author Share Posted October 25, 2020 @Dawlier.8521 is that I need a new pc but with not so high cost because I live in Brazil and with the high dollar everything is more expensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game is a bit older and so is the engine. Some parts are not well optimised. However, the better the specs are, the better it runs. But your budget does not correspond to this.My advice is to build a setup and share it here before buying with the question how it would run the game and how we would improve it without changing the tot prize.A good thing to consider is that the GPU has to be reasomabls, but the CPU is also very important for GW2. Specifically the single cores (as GW2 runs on one core, having a huge amount of poor cores is not so well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially FPS is heavily dependent on a high single thread performance. If I remember correctly a dev once said that there is a lot going on in the main rendering thread that they can't really extract into other threads.I've tried playing GW2 at minimum and at maximum settings and got only a few FPS in difference and that difference was small enough to be a statistical error. Upgrading my CPU increased FPS by a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anchoku.8142 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Please describe your computer, zHidden; CPU, memory, GPU, display format, etc.You may be able to play the game in high quality with a very small investment if your computer is very old and does not have a dedicated graphics card or has an an ancient model.
