    I still can't figure why the vsync is stuck on 31 fps on my laptop...

    On my desktop it plays arround 110 fps (like the g73, it doesn't feel smooth) but with the vsync it feels much smoother. If I compare it to the Cataclysm beta wich was HORRIBLE in fps well I guess the game will be better on release, but I don't expect miracles. Still, if you run SC2 you will run D3 better than SC2.

    a couple of things to note:
    1. No fsaa available in the beta.
    2. You didn't set the clutter density to max.
    3. When D3 goes live, it will most definitely have an ultra setting.
    These things will decrease FPS significantly.
