I'm not sure if my laptop can support StarCraft 2. Because I don't have a desktop and I only have a laptop.

And I heard about the overheating problems.

I have 182GB free of 320GB

Okay thanks, i heard bout the FPS lock in My Documents comething

what graphic card model?

how to upgrade to Vista SP2?

yeah its for his laptop. I have one cooler master which i bought for rm150

yeah same laptop. 4736g. I sent you a pm about ur settings in game

this one for sure can one

Lol, Im using core 2 duo, and my DirectX version is only DirectX10. Yours is DirectX11.

And your VRAM is 1GB. Mine only 512mb.


I can play medium-high settings on 1024x768. All ultra and high, except for Shadows, Lighting, Shaders, reflection, post processing, physics.


Yours I think can run on the highest settings with everything maxed out, i think.

I have a feeling that 9600M GT notebook graphic card is better than my G105m....though i bought my laptop September last year...not even one year yet


but I can only play SC2 with 1024x768 resolution with graphic settings on medium, terrain ultra, all high, except everything low on shaders, shadows, lighting, physics.

50-80 fps when playing single player campaign, or building my base

30-40 fps when got lots of units




can someone put the best configuration for my laptop?

Best graphic settings for my laptops so that I can play the game without lag.


But anyway, I'm quite glad that my game doesnt lag and it is not the lowest settings. Only lags a bit when there are too much units.

I'm sorry to say that if your laptop's specification is less than mine (LOOK AT THE FIRST POST), then your SC2 campaign will lag like shit.

The first 15 campaigns do not lag, I got 30-60 fps


Then, the last few missions lag like my ass. FPS drops terribly from 60 to 5 fps. WTF.


But, multiplayer and skirmish with bots wont lag. I got constant 40-70 fps when playing these.

I think no ehh....you'll need a new graphic card and a new processor....but too bad, our laptops cannot upgrade anything

Im using a dedicated graphic card for my laptop and its impossible for me to change it

Btw, I tried using my pendrive as RAM but it doesnt work

eh same, I got the message also when I played in one of the missions where you have to destroy the Xel Naga temple
