Even though sort of old, This mac has some serious power behind it.
I was buying GTA for PC as that is what most of my friends were doing. I thought why not use the mini? I guess it's slightly more powerful than my other computers. Anyways, I put a 256GB SSD in it along with 16GB of ram (Max for this model). Next installed bootcamp with as much partition space as possible.
After I got GTA V I expected a LOT of lag. I mean like 1-10 FPS. I have the 2.5GHz model with a AMD Radeon 6630M 256 GDDR5 VRAM. All I could say was "Wow". The machine handles it at around 15-30FPS and never overheats. I used Saphire Trixx to overclock my GPU and got a little more juice out of it.
GTA V is suppose to be a highly demanding game in terms of system resources. But the fact that this Max Mini has handled it so well is amazing. I made this post so that I could alert everyone else to the fact that if you have a computer that you think can't run it, there might be a chance it actually can. Anyways good luck with your computers!!
