[QUOTE="macbookjimbo, post: 1271354, member: 69482"] The server version has an integrated GPU which shares RAM with your main system RAM. The "regular" Mac Mini has a dedicated/discreet GPU with it's own RAM (not shared). This should give your games a bit of a bump. I was in the same decision position as you, but went with the mid-grade Mini yesterday. I'll be upping the RAM and hard drive myself via OWC.....Apple's upgrades are unnecessarily expensive. [/QUOTE]
