    So im waiting for my M14x R2 laptop, and had some questions. In your experience with the laptop, how goods is it really with games. I see reviews that are great but all aimed at first persons and such. Anyone have any experience with online graphic demanding games. I play The Secret world right now. Does this beast really put out the FPS?

    Its gives quite a performance for the size.

    Once you receive it, make sure you have your power settings on "high performance".

    Also, The M14x R2 works with Optimus technology, you'll need to whitelist your games to make sure they run with the 650m.
