Is WOW faster in Bootcamp or OS X? Opinions?

it *was* faster before the /console glfaster1 updates.

Now it's at least even if not slightly better. Plus the windows side doesn't support iTunes commands natively. The OSX client has pre-built binds available.

Only issue is if your clan uses Ventrillo and some people REFUSE to use the Speex codec. It's maddening that I have to boot into OSX to use Vent. But that's a personal thing.


Graphics, no difference or better in OSX since updates. That is all.

Is there a / command I need to make it run faster in OS X? Sorry for the n00b questions.

You'll get better FPS in Windows, hands down. The DirectX drivers are substantially faster.

Not to mention you can clock-up your video card in Windows if you're using a MBP CD machine and it makes a big difference.

I thought with the latest patch with OSX and WOW improved performance in WOW.

They did, but you still get better performance with Bootcamp.
