New Gaming Tests On High End MBP

[Salacion]

Battlefield Bad Company 2 with settings all on high and AA. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6bjdis6HEg

Impressive, when you consider AA is on.

If you have any videos you can post, please link (especially Crysis).

EDIT: Left 4 Dead 2 on high settings with 8x AA running at an average 30 fps http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGJdWlFXodc

Macbook Pro 13 Inch running Star Craft 2 on medium settings. Perfectly smooth. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJn_69xm1xc

20FPS is impressive for a $2500 computer? You have really low standards

When it comes to a Macbook Pro?

This is kind of off-topic, but what's the heat and noise level when playing games? When idle, surfing, viewing pictures, watching YouTube etc?
Either talk from own experience or download iStat Pro and take a screenshot of it.

Is it warmest with the Intel 3000HD or the 6750 enabled? Really concerned about those stuff, as I have ordered the high-end model myself

It dips below 20 during the explosion sequence... not quite playable frame rates. Would be better to see how it does without AA.

Sorry, but to me, 28FPS+ is good, and below about 23 is bad...
I guess i'll hold off on upgrading until we can get that. Until then, my 330m works fine.
Although it would be interesting to see how the lower priced base 15" plays this.

True true. I'm sure without AA on, and a couple other little tweaks, you'll be playing this game with a 40-60 fps. From what I've seen, practically every game on the market is more than playable on this machine. I'm just waiting for a Crysis benchmark to seal the deal.
