I use it for gaming. I have played Tribes Ascend, Trine 2, Starcraft 2, and the latest Elder Scrolls game. It is great. Folks have said that there is an input delay, but I don't really notice it. It is amazing. Make the jump. You will not regret it.I would highly recommend pairing it up with a adjustable desk mount (Ergotronics). I use SLI 460s and have not had any issues so far.

I think so. I bought it to play Guild Wars 2, and I expected to to medium settings, I can run it at medium to high very easily. It's a quiet machine, and a little big, but then I can use it as part of my desk. If you compare requirements for GW2 and Rune II, that should tell you what you need to know. I would say more likely.

Yes, I just bought it.. before buying it I did a lot of research bro and it can be run on low to mid settings maybe medium high. Haven't tried high. I also found this website: www.game-debate.com you put the specs of your pc and they tell you how much fps you can get and how can you run the game better etc.. Good luck :D

Yes, it works quite well with WoW. However, Warcraft is also dependent on your processor. If you do not have a decent processor, you won't be able to run the game smoothly on max settings still.

You will have a rock solid 60+ FPS at High settings. Although I have not tried the expansion on the laptop, it should play it like a champ in any case.

I honestly do not know. I think it is a bit cheaper, but packs enough for more games. My frame rate playing WOW went from 35 pfs [ using a Nvidia 295] to over 100 fps using the 650. That is at the highest settings

It can quite respectably. He may have to alter the graphic settings down a little in the menu to increase performance but the integrated graphics are decent. It handled Final Fantasy XIV and Starcraft 2 smoothly for me with some tweaking.

I bought this and it runs Stars Wars MMO, World of Warcraft MMO, EverQuest II and FF just fine with no blinks or lag as well as all mine Craft programs.. so its fast enough for all of those with no issues.

I love the laptop. Playing Wildstar averaging 30fps, which is not lightning fast, but it's smooth and quite enjoyable. WoW runs an average of 90fps with everything set to high. Mech Warrior Online yields similar results. I haven't tried any FPS's yet.

It runs it well as long as you are not wanting to run the highest end settings. I run at settings at the default "Good" setting with resolution of 1920x1080. The frame rate averages 35-45. It is definitely not the same as running on a powerhouse desktop, but it runs well enough to enjoy questing, pvp, and even some raiding. I am not an avid pvp or raid player so I can't say how the system runs when there are large numbers of players in confined areas. I have participated in some of the Celestials groups and never saw any issues there. The frame rate is usually on the lower side, 35 or even down to 30, but it still processes well enough to keep up with everyone.

A+ when looking directly at it, if you're using it for gaming don't hesitate its phenomenal. Playing FFXIV on it on max and no hiccups.

I bought this monitor and I'm using it with an Nvidia GeForce GT 425M 1 GB and it runs fine, playing wow at fair with 2K res. at 60 FPS.

I play skyrim on high settings minus the anti aliasing or the other option (can't remember it right now), I also give it a gig of video memory if you can spare it. It runs at more than 30 fps at those settings, so overall it's not "good" for those games but if you don't mind a little lower quality than yea its a fine substitute for an enormous card. Also I drop the resolution to 1366x720. I haven't actually looked at what the exact fps is but it's not choppy at all.

I just bought this PC and a nvidia 660 to play FSX.It seems good,not a top of the line gaming computer,but you will still be happy with it

I got your question in an email, and yes this is a god solid card to look at, but also games like sc2 are often prone to lag by the cpu load. make sure you have a good cpu to handle all of that.

So far, it's ran everything that I've thrown at it on ultra settings. It should definitely be able to run those games on atleast high. Good luck!
