Oh man, I just read some of the press stuff. Now I'm even more pumped for this game (if that's even possible!). I do hope they fix the frame rate thing soon, but it doesn't matter too much to me; I'm buying an awesome computer tomorrow actually (mostly for this game).

AMD Phenom II X4 965 3,40 Ghz
8 GB ram
Windows 7 64 bit
double ATI Radeon HD 5700 crossfire

This was the configuration of a tester in an Italian forum...and he still had frame-rate problems. Looks like they have a lot of work to do.

ArenaNet have been working on an Nvidia 3D solution, so maybe the game works better on Nvidia cards. Not that I know, but it could be.

And IncGamers said this:

"2 and a half year old PC that plays a lot of recent PC titles decently. Quad Core, 6GB RAM, Radeon HD 5750 graphics card. For pretty much all PvE and Conquest PvP I was sitting around 20-35 FPS, it would go a little higher when I was just having a wander around. The only thing that was unplayable was really busy parts of World vs World PvP. You could still make yourself useful in other ways on the map, just maybe not where the giant 60+ people zerg rush was happening."

We just don't know what resolution either of them were playing at, which is pretty important information...
