    Anyone played starcraft 2 on this notebook in ultra settings? How many fps?

    Planning to buy this as my gaming notebook.

    I've got the ROG listed in my sig and just fired up SC2 and Frapps, loaded "All In" set the graphics to ultra (I run a couple of things at medium by default) and fired it. With a screen full of Terran buildings and zerg attackers I was getting 19 frames.

    LOL Don't use fraps in SC2 to get framerate, hit ctrl alt f and it'll give it in game.

    I get 30ish on 1080 w/ ultra as terran. Sometimes a lot more, it depends what is on the screen.

    I've read (various places on this web site) that the creep can slow things down
