Hi Guys, Having some framerate issues with some games that I have been playing on my Mac. Even from playing small games, after a few minutes the framerate drops suddenly making the game almost unplayable. I will just verify that these aren't massive console titles, just small games. Macbook Pro Aluminium 15" 2.53GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4GB Memory Nvidia GeForce 92400M. Firstly I would like to know if there are any quick fixes (tried clearing out my HD - 100GB space). Any other suggestions? If the verdict is that the computer is too underpowered to play games, I don't want to buy a whole new computer, so I was wondering what should I upgrade? Processor, Ram? Thanks Mad
It's the cooling system on the macs. Make sure the fans are on when you are playing the game and the framerate will go back to normal. I kept having this issue and still do when I play MW 1 on my macbook pro 13" 2.53 GHz Nvidia 9400m.
Thanks Java and starjimstar! I loaded the app and then set the RPM to Higher and hay-presto, the games run perfectly. Once again, thanks a lot. Mad
What are the downsides to running a fan faster other than increased power consumption and a bit more noise? Potential harm from being overworked?
Most of the time, I'm not doing something intensive and my Macbook is making noise lower than normal background noise, and I certainly don't want to have a fan on.
