So I have just ordered a 15 inch laptop yesterday via Mythlogic,

specs are as follow:
i7-3840QM (2.8GHz, turbo boost up to 3.80 GHz, 8M L3)
8GB 1866MHz RAM
AMD 7970M
Crucial m4 128GB mSATA Solid State Drive and 320GB 7200 16MB

I will be posting FPS of Starcraft 2 when I receive it.

If anyone wants me to test out some replays and in different settings, don't hesitate to message me or just leave a reply here.

I will be getting it in roughly 2 weeks time, so until then, GLHF

Grats on the new hardware! :D

Whenever I check fps of different settings I run the pre-loader map at x4 speed and watch for my low fps (while recording) - always disregard the first load of the day. I'd also be curious to see how your laptop handles heat after running the map 20 times (or so).

Nice, no need to pay your heating bill if you live in an apartment/room then!

Congratulations on your new laptop.

I personally wouldn't ever purchase another laptop in my life, but I'm happy for anyone getting an upgrade.

I might if my internet allows but I ain't no high level player haha, just a low diamond who only does one build.
But we will see, maybe I will stream Terran with Hots (just gold though lol)

So as promised, I have just played a macro PvP in hots where we had huge air fleet, the lowest frame I dropped to was around 26fps.
I have changed the graphic card to a 680m instead

here're the screen shots:
ultra + 1080

Pretty impressive considering how many carriers I had out there:

For all my other games they had been pretty short games due to I am just playing around a lot with HoTS and just mess around in unrank.
I will post more if I ever get to another big macro game like this one.

p.s. temperature is awesome, both cpu and gpu maxed is only around 64 lol

I have tried to do some streaming but it seems to lower my fps too low at those situations, so I am probably gonna avoid it :X
Unless I am gonna back to play in low graphics, then streaming at ultra is probably not possible.
