According to that, your GMA950 (945G chipset) will work. Your FPS will probably be less than 20 though.

the 915G and the 945G - display Guild Wars very well
Less than 20fps is not what I understand as very well
Does actually anybody play GW on this graphics adapter?

Yes it does. Thats a similar chipet to what I use and It plays fine.
Less than 20 fps is an understatement, but it runs fine.
(I average like 15-16 fps =\)

Same for me, used to play on a GMA900 and it worked fine. Still always around 15-20 fps depending on which game i'm running. It's playable, not optimal but playable.

intel GMA950 can render the game at upwards of 50+ fps, if you set it to 1024x768 resolution and turn graphic settings to minimum (texture on high though). and no, that's not taken when i'm looking at a wall. that was taken while i was playing ABs.

at least, that's what my university's lab computers can do. pentium 4 HT and 1gb of ram.

one thing to note is that it cannot display certain effects, like fire renderings and lip movement.
