    On my m11x R2 it runs like crap! Added SC2 to my white list also but then again, I just received the laptop and may need to tweak it a bit. So far I'm highly disappointed though.

    UPDATE: Just ran SC2 on my M11x R1 and it runs it PERFECTLY! Anyone know how to fix it on m11x R2?

    im 100% sure its beacuse your nvidia card is not utilized. update to the DELL beta drivers and make sure you run sc2.exe with the high performance
