Hi all, looks like most of you has a better graphic card than my almost 2-yrs notebook with 9600M GT (512MB ram) and I am able to run the game in 1920 x 1080. smile.gif so no worries... smile.gif

Yeah... mine one after playing campaign for 30 mins or so, felt heaty on the palm rest area of the laptop even I am using a cooler. Perhaps I should lower the resoluton to 720 so can play longer smile.gif

By the way, will the GPU burns if too heaty?

Hi Kianweic: I installed a temp monitoring software "Real temp" and it shows normal temp of GPU is 50-51 degrees while after playign the game for an hour, I checked and found that temp is 72 degrees. Is it ok for the GPU? Do you have any idea of the danger zone temp for GPU?

By the way, where to see the frame rates of SC2?

Thank you for your help.

HI Gormaz: I am using HP HDX18 notebook.

Hi Zeratos, I dont think the cause is the C2D processor.. I'm running C2D 2.53Mhz and works fine... Dont see any lag on medium + high settings.

I guess most likely the lag is due to Integrated GPU...

Nowadays we need powerfl PC/ Laptop then only can play games smoothly.

However, Powerful = $$$

Hi Armageddon, I bet medium and a bit of high settings you could set as I am using T9400 @2.53Mhz and run well with medium-high settings.
