Hi, I have a Mac Mini 2012 i7 and I wanted to play some games on it (DIRT 3 Mafia II...), it can run them at a medium quality (as I have seen on YT videos), I have them on Steam and I have to use Windows to play, the question is, to take the most advantage as possible of the GPU and the CPU, should I use Bootcamp or can I utilise virtualization programs (VMWare...)?

For maximum power, always use Boot Camp. That way the hardware doesn't have to be shared and Windowd has direct access to it.
