That's about 1 year newer than my gaming laptop, and I can run it at max res with very high AA settings and everything maxed in AH except the reflections environment slider, which is about 1/2 way, and keep max FPS the entire time. With that laptop, which I commend you for buying, as the MSI gaming laptop is my next one as well, you'll be laughing with pretty much ANY game, including AH. Did you get the 15 or 17 inch display? Did it come with the free MSI backpack carrier? The one I'm looking at has it included, it's actually a really nice bag for carting the thing around.
