[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1585328, member: 56379"] I've always heard that many games are better optimized for specific graphics setups. I typically (everyday)...move between a 2009 iMac, 2011 13" MBP, and a 2011 17" MBP (I'm sure with different graphic hardware/software setups)...and I get different reactions to the same games I play. I think that Call of Duty 2 is an older game. 2005 release for Windows...2006 for Mac. So unless the developers have been really good with updates (not always the way with the Mac versions of games)...I could see how an older 2008 computer might do better than a 2012 (at least in some areas). You would think that the much faster 2012 MBP would have better frame rates...but maybe not as good at rendering (from a best compatability perspective vs. graphics hardware). On the other hand. Maybe the 2012 computer just needs to setup differently to get the game to play well (versus the 2008). - Nick [/QUOTE]
