hello all,
first post and kindda in a rush since the old 2.2 will likely be sold out very fast ...
Since the release of the new macbook pro's and the price drop of the old ones, i've been considering buying one.
The old MBP 2.2 is imho a steal, and I would buy it in a heartbeat, but the old and new 2.4 have more Vram (and the price difference between old 2.4 and new 2.4 is small enough to be neglible), which might be nice for some gaming
Anyway... i'm not really a big gamer but lately I've enjoyed COD4 Demo
on my old pc (tower) (I can play it at details of and decent but not great res) and I was wondering how the 128mb of Vram of the 2.2 sticks up to the 256mb of the 2.4 (which I guess will make the most difference)
Can anyone who has the specific MBP tell me what settings he can run it @ ?
(res., AA, etc...) or if not possible go to http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/referrer/srtest
and see what gives ? (you can select the game from a list, and it will show if your system is not possible/minimum/recommanded)
thanks in advance !
(btw: can you install vista easily trough bootcamp without going trough driver-hoops ? I prefer XP but since XP only supports 3Gb of RAM, and XP 64 bit is unstable and there are only 2 DIMMS ...)
(btw2: do you guys think this ram http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820134605
is good/speedy or should I buy other ram)
(btw3: sorry for the 2 extra questions they just popped up and I tried the search function, but so many post and so little time to search them all, thanks allot)
