mega Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 This saddens me anyone else dual booting? On my laptop with a GMA950 card, XP is much much faster in osx, all the shader options are greyed out, not sure why fps & general gameplay are quite a bit faster in XP, as much as I hate XP I'm forced to use it for this game Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/18562-world-of-warcraft-xp-vs-macosx86/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

aberracus Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 In my rig WOw in osx is a blast, i really dont need to go to my windows partition anymore except to play age of empires III. so.... your gma950 isnt really well suited for games.
