    Is there anyone using the M14x for F1 2010 or 2011? Could you share your specs, your settings and your fps?

    Thanks

    I'm running F1 2010, every setting is up on full, runs beautifully, it really does help to have an xbox360 controller though

    Can you run the benchmark and let me know the fps? Also would you please list your specs? I have an Alienware 17 with a 940mx CPU and thinking about getting a 14 for my office desktop replacement but I want to make sure I can still use f1 :)
