    Hi guys,

    Im sorry to open this thread since im sure there is many others like it, yet I haven't been able to find THAT many really and most of them don't give me any answers.

    What I would like to know is how is the top i5 or i7 model handling starcraft II?

    does it looks really bad if you scale down to a lower res (same aspect) like 1280x720 from the very high native res both models have?

    Are there any videos of the Z running starcraft II ? I cant find any on youtube, which surprises me a lot.

    Heat, I see a lot of people are reporting some scary temperatures. What is the state these days? and does it ever become unstable, start downclocking and such from heat issues?

    Thanks a bunch guys! I just wanna make sure it doesnt have some of the same issues other laptops have.. the rest of the laptop looks freakin sweet though. :)
