What'll happen when the X1 flare's CME hit Earth later today?

I've been watching the Sun for some months (thanks solarham.net) but since I'm a noob, I don't really understand what'd happen when it arrives (within the next 24 hours).

I knew that X class flares' CME are bad news. And in many articles there are warning that the effect will be global. But for years, we haven't got any X-class directly hitting Earth. (although we had many X-class flares every month) 

Now a X1 is coming. It sounds weak when you've been watching X10, X14 shooting around for the last few years. But it finally comes right at us. With our technology today, do you think that this event will pass as nobody even noticed? Or will it affect us minorly like, some static radio noises, some lag in online games? Perhaps the GPS will act funny for a while?

As a Vietnamese, I won't be able to see the auroras, and I'm pretty sad...

Honestly most of us probably won't even notice.  If you're far north or far south, then you'll get some nice auroras, those in the mid-latitudes might get something.  The satellites are designed to take radiation storms like this.  The GPS might get impacted mainly from interference in the upper atmosphere. We shouldn't experience electrical outages. The utilities are well aware of the risks and have taken steps to mitigate any damage.  A lot of this is hyped up by the news media who need a story.
