Okay, so I got my Blade Pro a few days ago. The thing is sexy, it's awesome. I had a lot of questions about gaming performance before hand, and some of those have been answered, but I'd like to explore it further. So let's talk about our gaming experiences here.
First off, let me say that this thing is moderately powerful. It is not "extremely powerful" like the CEO guy likes to say, but I think we all have a general idea of what it's going to be doing with just a 765m in there.
I've played ARMA 3, Shogun 2, Sleeping Dogs, and Fallout NV.
ARMA 3 runs decently well with almost everything up and AA off. AA is a BIG performance killer with this thing. When I was doing the helicopter showcase, and I was at the base around the helicopters, there was noticeable stuttering.
Shogun 2, I had almost everything on max except AA down and clouds down and I think Bloom checked instead of HDR, fleet and unit sizes one step down from max. It ran pretty well, but there was noticeable stuttering with a lot of troops on screen. I'm actually sort of worried about how it will handle Rome 2. I would like to note that the load times in Shogun 2 are slightly faster due to the SSD.
Sleeping Dogs ran perfectly with AA on "Normal" and pretty much everything else on max. EXCEPT, the intro at the menu screen stutters. I think there is something wrong with my flash player or something, because youtube videos have been stuttering in the same way. I'm actually sort of worried about that, and I'm hoping it's not a bigger issue with Windows 8 or something.
Fallout NV, of course, runs great with everything max. I did turn Vsync off just to be safe.

Fallout New Vegas should run on Intel IGP just fine. I run it on the Intel IGP on an Edge Pro.
Try using Chrome instead of IE if you're having Flash video problems.
