sulfo Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 I was wondering whether the mac mini G4 1.42 GHz with a gig RAM would run WoW OK(1024 middle detail 30 fps+)? have u heard or even tried?

The video card on the Mini is just too weak, even for Halo to be enjoyable at times. The Mini has such a weak Video card, it's not even funny. The Mini's front side bus is literally 5x slower than your AMD64's. Think about getting that Mini, really.

New001 Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 Erm, sorry if I sounded mean in my above post, but the Mini is definitely not a gaming machine on the PPC mac side, I have something close to a Mini, my iBook. WoW will run, but don't expect 30FPS at 1024x768. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/8455-wow-and-the-g4-mini/#findComment-52472 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headergasket Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 I hate to disagree, but I'm running WoW with a Mac Mini 1.42 GHz and 512MB of RAM. Now granted, the AH at IF is a little annoying, but the rest of the world runs pretty good. It's not a speed demon, but it is certainly within a comfortable fps range.

Doug the Impaler Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 I imagine it'd be playable on a 1.42GHz Mini, just nothing pretty. I bet if you cranked all the details to low and made sure to keep the camera focused downward so that you're mainly displaying the ground that it'd be OK.
