Does anyone have experience with playing EVE Online on any of the latest MBA or MBPr models? Basically laptops with the HD6000 or Iris Pro 6100 integrated gpu.
I still own an Air from Mid2011 (i5, 4GB Ram, 128SSD and HD3000). It is still working fine but it has gotten some flaws over the past five and a half years: Battery sucks, some CPU hickups here and there and the old Magsafe charging port sometimes does not charge.
EVE does in fact run on this machine. Lowest possible settings, it gets VERY load and the CPU reaches 81 degrees C...
Now here are two questions:
1. Could investing in the special screwdrivers, to open and clean my Air, be worth it? Maybe it gets quieter? Also, are the screws for later Airs or Pros the same?
2. How does EVE run on the newer machines mentioned above? I don't care about the graphical fidelty. Instead the noise and temps are more important to me.
