I purchased a second had iMac last week and so far no problems until i installed the only game i play on the PC (Football Manager 2014), all other games i play on the XBOX, not a very highly graphical game and i would not have though very demanding but its very jittery when viewing a football match and the drive seems to be running a lot.
if i put the game in windowed mode and make it smaller that helps but with a 27in monitor thats not what i wanted to do.
I have not yet tried any other games on the Mac but i was wondering if I should have got a faster machine ???
Specs : iMac "Core i3" 3.2 27-Inch (Mid-2010) Specs (Mid-2010, MC510LL/A, iMac11,3, A1312, 2390) @ EveryMac.com
Apple iMac "Core i3" 3.2 27-Inch (Mid-2010) Specs
4 + 8 GB memory installed in slots
By default, this model has an ATI Radeon HD 5670 graphics processor with 512 MB of dedicated GDDR3 memory
Standard Hard Drive: 1 TB (7200 RPM) Int. HD Interface: Serial ATA (3 Gb/s), virtually empty with MAVERICK installed
Apple Model No: A1312 (EMC 2390) Model ID: iMac11,3
I am thinking of reinstalling SNOW LEOPARD and restarting the machine but i am not sure if that will help ????
Is there any advice to get it running at top speed or any apps i should get to help me identify the problem area ???
Cheers
Gavin
