    Alright well some friends persuaded me to play WoW again (funny because I am not a gamer at all and rarely played when I did :p). Anyways, I am currently just running Ultra settings and it seems to be doing great, but was wondering what you guys run or if you guys have any suggestions on getting the best quality and performance.

    I use MSI Afterburner to Overclock at some recommended rates I read on the OC Forum. If you guys want to know my M14x specs they are below in my signature.

    Thanks!

    I'm running on ultra too. I can actually run it on ultra (with med shadows, everything else maxed) on battery mode! (This is on an R2) And that's without tweaks; was getting 40-50fps in Stormwind and I didn't notice any fps lag in a battleground, was pretty darn impressed! I don't raid anymore so I can't comment on the fps in that sort of environment, but why would you raid on battery mode anyway haha.
