Uh that computer could probably run 10 instances of Guild Wars on itself with no lag. If you have problems with Guild Wars just tell the game to run on only one core, and you're set.
(Can find forcecore links in other threads)

What people mean when they say GW doesn't support Quad Core, they mean GW doesn't support all '4' cores of it. Instead it will only use one out of the 4.
And if your computer doesn't run GW I will eat my hat.

I run guild wars fine on a MAC LAPTOP. (Macbook, not even Macbook Pro) So I really don't know what you're worried about ...
