    I've just been playing a few SC2 games, and yes loosing is as fun as winning.
    But I have a question, I want to see what the max settings my computer can handle. So is there any way to see what frames per second (fps) I am getting in SC2? Then I could tailor a graphics setting to the number of fps I would like.
    Thanks :).

    You could get Fraps and set it to show FPS. Since you won't be using it to record you can just download the trial version too.

    That would work thanks. I wish Blizzard would have added it into the game like they did in WoW.
    I'd have to ose bootcamp for it though. At a stretch I just might.

    or just run the debugger in Starcraft 2?
    (console?)

    Once I work out how to access and use the debugger I'll be ok.
    Thanks for that. i'll try to find it if I can.

    Use FRAPS (http://www.fraps.com/)

    I'm not sure how trial works ... my friend gave me the real thing. But it should allow you to capture at least a small portion of game in video. Then figure out fps using that.

    FRAPS automatically displays Frame Rate on games once it is started....

    Actualy I found an easier way to display the FPS in game.
    Just press Control+Alt+F keys all at once and bingo you fps appears on the screen. I tried it on the home screen inside SC2 and I got my fps.
