    Would the new asus g1s notebook be able to run WoW in native resolution smoothly?

    I am pretty sure it can run it on the highest settings possible at the highest resolution possible

    Pretty much any game at the highest settings, until dx10 games get released.

    Yeah. I ran WoW at 1920x1200 with settings turned up pretty high, on a Radeon 9800 Pro. I got fps in the 20s. When my 9800 died, I used an 8500 All in Wonder at 1920x1200, with everything turned down... I got 20s.

    Oh, yea, I ran WoW at max settings(a few at medium) at max resolution and it ran fine, even in 40 man raids(I stopped in January ;)).

    Original G1 here, runs at 1680x1050 with every last toy maxed out at 30fps solid. So your overkill for this game :D

    WoW can run quite decently on integrated graphics, so rest assured, your G1 should blaze through the game with every setting maxed out.
