This has been said over and over but here I go. Bootcamp is nothing. It's not an OS, it has nothing to do with running the OS.

Bootcamp is a Partition Magic like partition tool, Windows installer and Driver Downloader. Once Windows is installed Bootcamp does NOTHING. NADA. Not one thing at all. Windows is running Natively on the same hardware you would get in a PC with the same specs.

If anyone tells you differently, they are totally wrong.

You are thinking of a Virtual Machine that runs Windows within OSX. Now those are bad for 3D gaming as they are layer on TOP of OSX. Once Bootcamp gets done installing Windows, it boots up on it's own and has it's own access to the hardware. Nothing else is running except Windows.
