GW2 Optimization, worse than I thought

Bought a new rig, thankfully not for GW2, since I’d be more angry at these results:

Core i5 4670K Quad-Core Haswell @3.4GhZ (non-OC atm)
Gigabyte GTX 770 4GB
8GB Corsair Vengeance
240GB Samsung SSD

First time firing up GW2 on the rig, auto-detected all settings to high/max. Upon loading Lion’s Arch, I found frames dropping to as low as 16.

This is disappointing, tbh. Are there any plans to change this for the better?

Hi George Steel,

Your system should definitely be able to handle Guild Wars 2 with higher framerates than that. I’d like for you to submit a support ticket and contact us directly so we can further assist you one on one with this problem and hopefully narrow down the cause.
