Is anyone using aluminium Macbook for 3D modelling so far? Or Zbrushing stuff? Since the current model are having 5times stronger graphic peformance than the previous macbook model.

I know mbp would be better but i am curiousity the significant improvement in this 9400M nvidia for 3D routines.

Since i checked the others performance btwn mb & mbp in after effects & Cs4 does not exists the obvious gap. Merely a few second of difference there is.

Anyway, the information are based from website review.. Not from any real users that i know of..

Please sharing.

Yeah, from what i researched thru youtube videos about Macbook Gaming.

Far Cry2, Bioshock, COD4, WoW, Fallout3, Crysis... all can play at smooth Fps.

I couldn't imagine these intensive games can be play in Macbook now.

Now i have second thought to get MB instead of MBP. I think the nvidia chips can push some of the 3D application as well since the 3D games all works pretty cool with it.

2.0ghz or 2.4ghz having a little improvement thru the benchmark. But some owners said 2.4ghz did push up a little faster.

Mainly, that little push up might not be obvious for everyone. The backlit keyboard is something that make Macbook so "pro" now.

SOmehow, i wonder some DIY enthusiats are actually modding their mb with 2 LED lights underneath the keyboard now?! Issit possible..

SPend another RM1000 for 2 LED bulbs. (HDD is cheaper to upgrade now).

CHeck this video.

i haven't touch the MBP model yet..

Hopefully someone can do the gaming comparison between 9400M & 9600M videos in youtube.

So far i only saw a sample from SPORE. It did feels lagging when objects crowded.

Maybe upgrade to 4GB RAM in MB...can push it smoothly.

p/s: Today i saw my friend using Photoshop CS4 to do 3D modelling texturing. I mean importing .obj and rotate the model in 360degree..


i hope to understand how the nvidia 9400M & 9600M to justify their performance with the CS4.

mojoza,

do u mind to print some screen shots of both game while using 9400M & 9600?

Video even better..haha... Can see how the FPS performs..

Write more reviews bout difference of both GPU tech if you feel comfort with.

then u have to spent some times in youtube to check out the gaming experience wif Mac Machine..

Yeah in XP OS...

Can u try wif the 9400 card?

SEXY@_@~...

Can you try Devil May Cry 4?! or Fall out 3...hee

I had came across one youtube having Highest setting for DMC4 in the macbook.

Hope you have the real fun too...

Do you have Far Cry 2 ? Dat's another game that worth to check into. Nice textures...hee..

Yes man.

Have to be in XP..

mojoza,

All these while, you are using 9600 GPU to get the FPS performance?

haha.. i am interested in how 9400M performs actually..

Anyone here wif MB gaming experience yet??

So, the Macbook 2.4Ghz still under performance compare to Macbook Pro(8600M GT)?

Damn. i think i having dilemma again..haha..

Do you mind to update the result details by using Macbook Pro(9600M GT) with those above Games..
With 8600M GT also can. Since they are quite closer to performance.

Presto was providing more details in each latest welcomed games within new macbook's nvidia chip performance.

The Framerate is good to imagine how smooth the game can running with the machine.

The conclusion is to let future's macbook potential buyer understand more instead of nagging bout the nvidia performance after purchasing.

It is a piece of helpful advise in better off buying a Pc laptop with cheaper price and better graphic card. Only If you are well-consider yourself as a mobile gamer.

Rm4799 can get quite a good spec pc laptop as we know it.

Getting a desktop for high-standard gaming experience is another advise for those belongs to Pro Gamer's world.

These are more accurate & trustable information than what we can survey through youtube videos.

Just Keep updating the gaming performance if you guys are at Freetime..

hee...

aiks... i cannot try games yet.. i am still stucking in finding a way to make 2nd partition for gaming in bootcamp XP..

Anyone care to help me here?! i had done wif my strength over here.

thanx first.

i tried DUAL CARD in COD 5... it works wor..

But i haven't spent time to check on the detail.. i just move around the battle scene for 2 mins.. It is so extremely smooth.. and high detail.

Issit All Game can only running at 1280x800 in mbp?

Prince of Persia 4 very lagging when set to 1440x900.

There is a option to choose Dual Cards in the Graphics Setting.

Darn it.. I wanna install Crysis from friend. But friend all said Farcry 2 more fun.

Yeah man.. how can i forgot FALLOUT 3... my friend playing in the office.

THe GFX is eye-popping.. I should do that~..

How bout dead space in your view? I like the graphics too... Not sure about gameplay.

hi, when i moved the cursors at Menu inside Crysis. THe sound will "pop" and gone...After that, no more sound in game and cinematic cut-scene.

But by using mouse to control the cursor can refrain this sound issue.

Anyone having this issue in Crysis?

I felt the sound driver for Bootcamp is not stable.. I can hear "cracking" sound from music sometimes.

Like running too many applications at the same time.

However i didn't.
