Howdy ^^,
Since im a real no-knowledge guy, when it comes to hardware, id like to ask if anyone knows if my MacBook white 2.ghz 1 gb ram would be able to run Guitar Hero lll without lagging.
It's bought last year, and i havent upgraded it in anyway.
I run leopard.

Sadly, it won't run at all. It needs a graphics card to run (which rules out any Mac Minis or MacBooks).

Yea I don't believe it'll run on the MacBook or Mini, as it requires 128mb of video RAM and they only have 64mb shared, or at least my MB does.

It's not the video RAM that's the problem, since the integrated graphics will use more than 64MB if the app requires it. The problem is that the integrated graphics are just too low-end and lack features and are slow. (And the X3100 drivers are terrible.)
