I posted a thread earlier about how terrible the rMBP handled Witcher 2even at the lowest setting.
I was only getting 20 fps even after resetting smc and pram
I even installed the entire OS hoping to get a speed bump, but unfortunately came up with nothing.
So in the end I asked for a refund through Apple finally decided to install Windows 8 and try it out.
First off, I sorta like Windows 8, but I'm not in the Microsoft Ecosystem and I really don't feel like having to sign up and connect myself with every feature that Windows offers, so I didn't even waste my time creating a Microsoft Account.
I downloaded the latest drivers from Nvidia and try out Call of Duty MW3
Let me just say that this game runs perfectly even on the highest settings at 2880 by 1800.
Its completely unbelievable and I am so excited to spend tomorrow evening going through the campaign.
The rMBP has surprised me and I cannot wait to try out Crysis 3 or Battlefield 3.
As far as Witcher 2 goes, I got around 34 fps at the highest setting. WAY MORE than the native Mac Version.
I wish this could somehow be solved, I love the Mac OS and I hate having to use Bootcamp when I want to play a game.
I now wish I would have bought the 768 GB SSD instead of my little 256.
If anyone has any tips to maximize space on Windows 8, please let me know.
Also if anyone has any tips on gaming and how to get the most out of rMPB, I would appreciate the help.
