No, it isn't still cpu bound, but its not possible to answer why your fps is low if you don't give your computer specs.

not according to anet.  recent anet  blog entry that doesnt really spell out anything clearly

hope it helps

This article might give you some answers: https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/bill-freist-talks-optimization-and-performance/

Oh necro beat me by a second. I must post faster next time. :p

Reference:

Q8400

8 Gigs DDR2

NVidia Geforce GTX 560

40+ FPS in low population ares

25+ FPS in Lion's Arch

Was running under <20 FPS when it was CPU bound

I updated to the recommended new nVidia Beta drivers like the game client suggested and my performance was markedly improved. After they got some bugs out last night was one of the smoothest performances, graphically speaking, that I have seen out of the game.

Yeah...make sure you get beta driver 304.72...much better performance.

That's never good. I reccomend checking your airflow and cooling accordingly

What is this airflow you speak of ?  A Mystical force to cool off CPUs and GPUs ?

But if you cooled it,  it wouldn't be smokin.

I think the last time I saw a component smoke was a socket 475 under peltier cooling. More like combust there though .

Not my cup of tea , Been a LIan li user for 20 years , old habits are hard to break. I am fond of the corsair boxes though . Ive had 2 of those in the last 10 months .

Oh i'm playing it on my laptop which has,

• i3 2.4 ghz processor
• 3 gb ddr3 1066mhz ram
• 512 mb ati mobility 5470 video card

Lian Li is good chit but I'll stick to my Silver Stone everyday of the week for performance vs price.

Don't expect good fps in large WvW battles with anything less than an i5. The game also seems to be more optimized for intel CPU's.

I seriously don't mean to harp on you Jusomdude but even Quiz (the one who helped you, among many of us, decide on what to build) will tell you that if overall performance is what you are seeking Intel i5 is the way to go (actually above i5 currently nets you zero gain in most PC games due to lack of utilization of i7's "virtual" cores).
