Wow.. I cant believe people actually play different factions or races because for some crazy reason, people get off to VIDEO GAME cartoon characters... What fucking fags, maybe you should look at a hot bitch in real life then in a video game... =/

are you useing a mouse? or the factory touch joint? i have the new 15 inch pro like urs.. and always wondered should i get a mouse on the side to play first person shooters or games like this.. let me know..please
How do you have 2.4 ghz? is this a macbook pro or just a macbook white with aluminum casing becaue the macbook white gets 2.13 ghz and the macbook pro 13'' gets 2.26 or 2.53 ghz? please someone help lol im confused. also does the extra .13 ghz from macbook white to macbookpro13'' really make a different on wow ingame?
i dont get ppl trying to show ¨good quality¨ while killing boars and shit.. u should put some 25 man raid / AV / Wintergrasp and then u could tell VERY PLAYABLE
btw: 9400m is still INTEGRATED (just as X3100 was), so dont expect high/descent fps while lots of ppl, spells and stuff
do you have the 9400M? or are you relying on the fact that it's integrated to judge everything? don't talk out of your ass. i have this card, i've done wintergrasp and 25 man raids, it plays fine. in fact it actually plays SMOOTHER in raids because they are in doors, all in native resolution.
Did you have to install anything specail? or did you just put the disk in and download? And does this include the expantion pack? and what about the newest one? Help would be appreceated :)
Do you have any problems at all? Or is it like the perfect and most beautiful machine? :) I was going to play world of warcraft too, but now that i see it it's way too addicting.
I wanted the new Macbook, but I found a deal on a 2006 model with 4 GB Ram. Also, I run DJ equip through firewire, so the old one was out and I'm not paying the price for a pro model. Mine plays WoW very well. What realm and such r u on?
This is great i wanted to buy a macbook but i wasn't sure how well games ran on it. I need it for school and editing anyways. But that makes it so much better. And the songs fine i don't know why people make such a big deal.
If you're gonna use it for editing, note that this does not have firewire port. I would recommend getting the MacBook Pro. It is really awesome! And the cheapest one does not cost a lot more than the MacBook.
I hope they double the graphics horsepower (32 shaders vs 16) on the next macbook, it sounds like alot but take it from a hardware nut like me, it isnt :).
Too bad Nvidia seems to be doing nothing but die-shrinks nowadays.
The fastest single chip graphics card has 15 times more unified shaders, and dont even get me started on the dual chip cards, lol.
I have a base 2.0 GHz Aluminum MacBook and the game runs smoooooth. It runs far better than it does on my MacBook Pro (Jan 2007 rev., Core2Duo @ 2.16, radeon X1600 128 mb, 2 gigs RAM). I will post a video of MacBook gaming shortly to demonstrate.
lol on my pc my i am at 3 fps in any place in the game and in shatrath im like 2 fps lol i don't know where to buy stuff to upgrade and plus its too much money.
WoW runs the same on both Windows and Mac, it's just up to your preference or situation. For me, I already spent about $60 on Civ 4 + expansions on Windows, so I'll be using Boot Camp for WoW as well. If you aren't tied down to Windows, though, WoW Mac version will run just fine. Same graphics, almost the same features (some mods aren't out for Mac yet, but there are plenty,) etc.
God yes! I actually had the 2.0 version for a few days until I realized I wanted the stupid lighted keyboard. It played no different then my 2.4 version.
It wasn't all that bad, actually (the installation). So far this beauty is working well for me, but since I'm new to macs, I'm still trying to wrap myself around how to install things. Of course, since I need many microsoft programs to complete school work (microsoft word, powerpoint) I have to torrent them, and I'm having loads of issues with that...
Do yourself a huge favor dude. Buy yourself a copy of XP or Vista, and load it onto your Mac with Bootcamp. So much better and WAY more secure than torrents.
You can also buy the disc that comes with Powerpoint, Word, and Excel 08 for $150 but as Aperture says it would be better to get a copy of XP and put it in using bootcamp.
OpenOffice? What I know, it should compatible with mac. I find it usefull, and it's free. Going to buy a new computer next summer, I think i'm goin to worry about what to buy when the time comes. Cya later in summer with my new mac/vaio Z^^
Sigh...i want one soo bad but i just got a new white macbook a year and a half ago. It plays wow ok in low populated areas only. Horrible for battlegrounds. Thanks for the video on it...
does WOTLK play fine with the same graphical settings you showed int his video. cause if it stays around a minimum of 25-30 fps in northerend than itsa mine.
i have a 2.0 Ghz 4GB RAM macbook Aluminum ... it effing heats up to around 75-80 degrees celsius when i play WoW (i play everything on high, windowed mode with iTunes and yahoo msger playing). i use smcFanControl to to control my internal fan's RPM..
has anyone already picked up wrath of the lich king by any chance? cause i'm wondering if it will perform as well als the original wow does on the unibody macbook. on one hand it should, cause wrath doesn't demand much more from your computer than bc does, but you never quite know 'till you tried. any and all tests with wrath will be highly appreciated.
Hi, thx for the review. Did you try it in a 5, 10 and 25 men raid? I would be very interested in knowing the fps during an instance with 10 or more people .
I have done 5, 10, 25, and 40 man raids on the MacBook and it seems to handle everything fine. I have been very pleased with the machine when playing WoW.
So this weekend I purchased a 22" LG monitor to hookup to my new MacBook here and I must say I am very pleased with the results. Our guild did drunk KARA and it was awesome! FPS was never lower then 35. I do however boot up with only the 22" monitor and not running both.
o just got a dell comp w. vista and an intel core 2 duo processor. WoW doesnt work on it! the requirements say i need pentium 3. how did you get it to work? i need help!
Dude. Pentium III? Those things are like 440MHz. That ancient. How the hell do you run vista on it? Anyway, buy a mac instead of some cheap-ass 10 year old Windows PC. And a Dell of all computers? This is what happens when you take the cheap road out.
Everything is at max except for Texture Filtering, which is at 60%, and shadow quality, which is at the lowest setting (since there are only 2 shadow qualities on the Mac version).
I show you the video settings at the end of the video. I replaced my black MacBook with this new model. Its honestly night and day difference when playing wow. Before I could only really use the MacBook to check my mail in game or do some auction action.
Yeah, thats usually all I even CAN do on my MacBook currently (Use my iMac for actual gameplay). Another question... Do the fans on your new aluminum MacBook generate a lot of noise while playing WoW? Because my Black one does every time I play WoW or any complex application for that matter...
Was this using the 9600M or the 9600M GT? (both of which are built into the laptop) And what resolution were you playing at?
I might add that The Burning Crusade isn't 5 years old. It came out on January 16 of '07, which is not even two years ago. Also, although Shattrath city's graphics don't match the graphics of some other games, you don't have 100 other players standing right next to you in CoD4 or Oblivion. I would love to see the frame-rate in WotLK when it's released.
He's got a Macbook, they just have the 9400m, not the GT, thats the macbook pro you're coonfusing it with.
I'd really like to see some battleground and instance fights and strolls trough Shatt and Ironforge with the ctrl+R fps enabled, so we can see how it exactly performs in terms of fps dips and stuff.
That's the normal Macbook? The pro must crank out some insane fps in that case. Definitely going to get the pro in this case. Wish there were a movie it though.
"NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT graphics processor with dual-link DVI support; 256MB of GDDR3 memory on 2.4GHz configuration; 512MB of GDDR3 memory on 2.53GHz and 2.8GHz configurations"
Ill do some more videos. My buddy has my video recorder but ill do it. I have been playing a lot of AV with my MacBook here and have been VERY happy with it. Average FPS is 30 or so. Sometimes 26 when in the cave before the battle starts.

has anyone already picked up wrath of the lich king by any chance? cause i'm wondering if it will perform as well als the original wow does on the unibody macbook. on one hand it should, cause wrath doesn't demand much more from your computer than bc does, but you never quite know 'till you tried. any and all tests with wrath will be highly appreciated.

Hi, thx for the review. Did you try it in a 5, 10 and 25 men raid? I would be very interested in knowing the fps during an instance with 10 or more people .
Thx

I have done 5, 10, 25, and 40 man raids on the MacBook and it seems to handle everything fine. I have been very pleased with the machine when playing WoW.

is it 2.0 or 2.4 ghz?

do you think the new WOTLK expansion will be able to run on your new Macbook with the high settings?

So this weekend I purchased a 22" LG monitor to hookup to my new MacBook here and I must say I am very pleased with the results. Our guild did drunk KARA and it was awesome! FPS was never lower then 35. I do however boot up with only the 22" monitor and not running both.

no shit but its too late for that.

Dude. Pentium III? Those things are like 440MHz. That ancient. How the hell do you run vista on it? Anyway, buy a mac instead of some cheap-ass 10 year old Windows PC. And a Dell of all computers? This is what happens when you take the cheap road out.

What were the graphic settings on? Can you take a screenshot of what the settings were set to during this video?
I have a black 13.3" MacBook now and I'm getting like an average 13 fps on World of Warcraft.

It shows the setting at the end of the movie.
Everything is at max except for Texture Filtering, which is at 60%, and shadow quality, which is at the lowest setting (since there are only 2 shadow qualities on the Mac version).

Ah... I watched the whole thing just I guess I wasn't paying attention, lol. Thanks for pointing that out!

I show you the video settings at the end of the video. I replaced my black MacBook with this new model. Its honestly night and day difference when playing wow. Before I could only really use the MacBook to check my mail in game or do some auction action.
nightcasino 3 years ago
Yeah, thats usually all I even CAN do on my MacBook currently (Use my iMac for actual gameplay). Another question... Do the fans on your new aluminum MacBook generate a lot of noise while playing WoW? Because my Black one does every time I play WoW or any complex application for that matter...

Thank you for this!
Was this using the 9600M or the 9600M GT? (both of which are built into the laptop) And what resolution were you playing at?
I might add that The Burning Crusade isn't 5 years old. It came out on January 16 of '07, which is not even two years ago. Also, although Shattrath city's graphics don't match the graphics of some other games, you don't have 100 other players standing right next to you in CoD4 or Oblivion. I would love to see the frame-rate in WotLK when it's released.
TyLeRcAsP 3 years ago
He's got a Macbook, they just have the 9400m, not the GT, thats the macbook pro you're coonfusing it with.
I'd really like to see some battleground and instance fights and strolls trough Shatt and Ironforge with the ctrl+R fps enabled, so we can see how it exactly performs in terms of fps dips and stuff.
Kerelvent 3 years ago
That's the normal Macbook? The pro must crank out some insane fps in that case. Definitely going to get the pro in this case. Wish there were a movie it though.
TyLeRcAsP 3 years ago
and the pro has a 9600M as the second one, not a GT

Ill do some more videos. My buddy has my video recorder but ill do it. I have been playing a lot of AV with my MacBook here and have been VERY happy with it. Average FPS is 30 or so. Sometimes 26 when in the cave before the battle starts.

I have the exact same specs, but i have the 2.0ghz processor, would that make a major difference on WoW ?
