What's your settings? im guessing pretty low, but im just wondering. Also any over heating or crashing issues? Thanks!
 
I play WoW on an external at 1080p Ultra settings in WoW and get literally NO lag anywhere, except for a minute right when I log in. Usually I stay between 35-60 FPS throughout gameplay as well. SC2 I have yet to get, (Im a broke college student) but I play Black Ops on medium settings via bootcamp and it runs well too. 25-35fps, no real lag.

I wonder how much the SSD is helping you over a 5400 or even a 7200 drive? I would be happy to stick with 13" i7 but I worry that I need an SSD to make it work right (SCII). SSD is not an option for me since it is my only true system and I would need massive monies to pony up for the 750GB SSD 😱
