    Where is a decent/cheap place to get it? I haven't pre ordered yet because I haven't bought the parts to even build my computer but I'm thinking about doing it in the next week.

    fair enough :) most of my games are bought via steam although I have used shop.to as well. Most I play right now other than those is WoW mostly because this is my gaming rig bought about 4 years ago - http://asia.cnet.com/product/acer-aspire-4920g-core-2-duo-t7100-processor-18ghz-1gb-ram_specs-40763446.htm

    I think thats the right laptop I have although I did change the hard drive in it (sure mine came with 250Gb which is now at 500Gb) and upgraded to Windows 7 as soon as I could.

    Had to turn everything to low and lower the resolution from 1920x1200 to 1600x1200 but it runs it pretty smoothly. Much better than the beta. Looking forward to a new build in the near future than we can crank the resolution and settings back up.

    Just off loaded a HD 6870 which will be put to use xfire, if the performance gains are similar it certainly bodes well for a certain new acquittance of mine!

    Well I'm using a single GTX 570 and have played last twenty minutes of the SP on Ultra, it's not stuttered and crashed or anything. Though GPu load as well as everything else has been at 99% according to GPU Z Log file. Though I just checked the log and my GPU temp his 80c eeeep!!!

    Runs pretty well on a 560 TI, full detail @ 1680x1050. A few moments where a bit more video memory would be welcome but not during actual action, just whilst the assets being swapped between battles.
