Hi all,
First time poster, hopefully someone will be able to point me in the right direction as other forums have failed to do so.
I now own my first iMac, i've had it for roughly 12 months and use it currently for my photography and design work.
I've always been an avid gamer, in particular using Steam!
I can currently play counter-strike, day of defeat etc, but I want to play more - unfortunately a lot of them are windows based.
If I buy a copy of windows, and partition it VIA bootcamp, could i expect good performance for games by that route? I'm currently able to play with the majority of settings on high with nice flowing FPS. Can I expect the same when using bootcamp, or is this not the best option for me?
I have a 2011 iMac
2.5 ghz intel quad processor
4 gb ram - looking to upgrade this.
350gb free space on my hdd.
AMD radeon HD 6750M
So basically, for games can i get away with using bootcamp and windows, or am I better off putting together a dedicated gaming rig?
