    nice :)

    also, did your laptop have any overheating issues after let's say, 3 hours of gameplay?

    m11x r1 will handle wow easily, the lag you are talking about when you are in an ICC 25m raid or Wintergrasp lag isn't a hardware computer lag, even high end desktop computer with the current top of the line GPU/CPU lags on 25m or Dalaran/Wintergrasp not because it is hardware base, that's because of the server having too much bandwidth and too much users at the same time in one location.

    If you don't have it laying on a blanket or anything you'll be fine.

    Yeah it will be fine. Just drop the view distance down some and the shadows down. Rest you are good to go at high.
