Hello fellas,
I installed SC2/HOTS on my Thinkpad W520.
Its mainly a CAD-Laptop but I wanted to play when I am
at hotel etc.
The Fps are superb at about 250 all the time, but there are
"lags" every few seconds. I aint got stuttering if I play offline vs AI,
but online vs AI. So I set the maxfps to 60.
Since that didnt help, I asked google and disabled
Intel-Speedstep at Bios and switched to lan instead wireless.
That didnt change anything either. Drivers are up-to-date.

Perhaps you had similar problems and got a solution.

Have you tried the laptop on your home connection to make sure it's not just related to the internet at the places you normally use it at?
|
Sounds Network related if your units are standing around not doing things for long periods of time but the game is being rendered properly.
|
Firm and home is the same for me, so I cant benchmark different connections.
Tracert to battlenet-server says a ping of about 40.
Wireless and lan got both the newest drivers form 2012
|
Got any kind of AV software running in the background?
|
First of all apologies for bumping an old thread, but it states exactly what my problem is. Trying to run SC2 on my MSI GT780.
Campaign is butter smooth everything on high/ultra. Dota 2 runs great. but SC2 multiplayer has an odd stutterlag every +/-3 sec or so.
Tried the same things as the OP. None the wiser.

It's kind of a known problem, many people experience network stuttering even though their internet is not to blame. This is related to something between you and blizzard servers (I think it's called a routing or peering problem?).
I personally have been experiencing that a lot on evenings and week ends, and now it's even becoming a problem on afternoons where servers shouldn't be too crowded. Pingtests and speedtests while having the problem show 0 loss, stable and low ping (40ms from south france to frankfurt), and 8mb/s + bandwith.
There is still no known fix afaik, and I'll be more than glad to find one as my starcraft play time has been reduced to almost zero because of that. Losing games cause you can't split, can't make your units attack the first time you try and so on because of lagg spikes is just awful.

Alright I fixed it moments after posting this.
The problem is the drivers for the network adapter.
I used this site to find whether the drivers are up to date : http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/detect
and then google for the respective model of network adapter that your computer has. Then download the new driver file and go to device manager -> right click on the network adapter -> install updates -> manually browse to the driver you downloaded and install -> fixed.
-Cheers
