Will the 1299 Imac with the cheapest things Run games without lag?

I am wondering if the cheapest Imac with the cheapest things on the setup will run computer games such as minecraft without lag?

Will be using it just to soley play video games. Also any rumors on when the new imac could come out soonest/ latest date
Yes it will play games just fine. Per the Terms of Use we cannot discuss future products on this forum.
You would only need antivirus software if you run MS Windows and only for the Windows partition. Because there are no viruses for OS X it's unnecessary for OS X. The good news is even if your MS Windows partition becomes totally diseased this will in no way affect OS X.
I would recommend looking through:

    No idea if Windows will do it, but you can run Windows without Bootcamp & have OSX available at the same time, which should give you all the Monitors that OSX uses.

  • Can a 2006 iMac with an Intel chip run OS X Mavericks?

    My daughter has a 2006 iMac with an Intel chip and 3 gigs of RAM. She's been told it can't run Mavericks. Is this true? Or, is there something missing from her configuration we can add to enable Mavericks? Thanks!

    Hi, Ralph. That's very helpful. I did look and discovered that Apple lists my daughter's iMac from 2006 as not able to run Mavericks.
    I'll be looking at it later, when I have it in front of me, and I'm going to look for EFI firmware, and at least the latest OS it can run. But it looks like a new Mac is in her future, considering her web use includes streaming video. And because the security updates issue for older Macs is a concern.
    Thanks for your help!

  • Why does my iMac temperature go up when running games through Windows using BootCamp?

    Hey guys,
    These are my current specs: iMac 27 inch, intel i7 quad core 3.5 ghz, 16gb ram and 1tb sata hardrive with nvidia gtx 780m.
    Ive installed windows on my mac and have discovered that when running games the temperature is much higher. For the same game on Windows i've had my CPU run at 80-81 C on roughly all cores and my GPU temp went up to 85 C. On mavericks same game runs at temps of 58 C for CPU and 71 C for GPU. However on mavericks the frames rates are lower even when running same settings as on windows.
    I tend to think that mavericks is somehow limiting my hardware in order to keep the temperature down whereas on windows on my mac I can really feel the kick of the system yet the temperature goes really high. Is there any way to sort this out?

    gpu driver optimising is much more used in windows it give better fps but less stability and as you notice more heat and more noise as the fans work harder
    lower the eye candy and resolution is a cure

  • By updating the software version, will the downloaded thing be get delete from my i pad?

    Please help me to find out...

    You shouldn't lose any content if you update the iOS version, but before you start an update of any device or computer you should always take a backup, and prefreably you'd also copy any important documents, files, photos etc of it so that you have a copy of them outside of the backup.
    You can copy your iTunes downloads from the iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases

  • Will the New MaPro running Maveriks do a select boot from an external HD of older OSX versions?

    Hi...
    I was wondering if the new MacPro will do an Option selective boot of an external HD bootable backup made using SuperDuper?  The drive would be a FW800 external connected via adaptor as the nMP has nonly TB and USB 3 ports.

    As shipped, the new MacPro late 2103 will boot ONLY from the software it shipped with, or a re-load of the software it shipped with. Nothing older.
    You may be able to install and fiddle with Virtualization software to get an older version to run under a Hypervisor, but it will be some work.

  • Can I be the first to ask Will the new iPhone run Aperture?

    And will Aperture support RAW files from this new camera phone?
    C'mon!! WHY NOT!!!
    Sorry, could not resist

    I came to the forum tonight, specifically looking for someone to ask this question; it was inevitable. LOL.
    For more realistic issues:
    I hope the iPhone will sync with specified Aperture albums, not just iPhoto albums.
    And I wonder if someone will make an iPod adaptor (which is what the iPhone seems to use) to display 1024x768 images so you can use iPhone's photo app to display slideshows on a video projector. Or maybe I should just continue using my MacBook Pro.

  • Will The Sims 3 run on my mac

    This is my Mac Spec.
    Processor  2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory  2 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  NVIDIA GeForce 320M 256 MB
    Software  Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3 (11D50b)
    I want to buy The Sims 3 and i'm just wondering if it will fit. The Sims requires 2GB of RAM, will this make my Mac slow? or the game?
    I'm not too sure if this is the right place to post this.
    Many thanks to anyone who can help!

    2 GB is rather the minimum. Your machine would deserve more RAM, as much as possible, with or without Sims 3.

  • Will the Universal Software run on original Mac??

    Hi All,
    Seens Apple had introduce the Intel base Mac, I'm a bit worry about the Mac software will be obsolete between 3-5 years later, without the software support, I think the G4/G5 base system will be a piece of junk soon.
    How could people invest a high-end computer without software in next few year? Anyone clear with the situation?
    Regards,
    Goh

    Apple says it will migrate its entire product line to Intel by the end of the calendar year. This means that all the hardware they make after that will be Intel, it does not mean that they will not be making software for only Intel Macs after that. Apple has pledged to support the PPC for some time, they still have, and will have a lot of users on PPC.
    OSX-PPC and OSX-Intel are the same, they just run differently due to different chips, so programing for OSX should run just as well on either. If developers are using Apples X-Code tools all they have to do in theory is check on extra check box to make a Universal that will run on both, the extra time in development is in testing two platforms.
    Codeing for OS9 and OSx were writing for different OS's so they had to start over basically.
    It will be a long time before the Intel Mac number get near the PPC installed base right now.

  • When will the DIrectory Server run on Linux?

    Does anyone know when the DS software (and more specifically the admin server) will actually run on recent versions of Linux?
    The version of RHE it runs on is ancient...
    Is this typical Sun talking out of both sides of their mouth when it comes to Linux?
    Our enterprise will likely be forced to move to a different DS (eDirectory?) if Sun is going to continue to drag it's feet around making their software run on Linux.

    I can answer your questions but not in this forum - this is not the appropriate place to discuss products other than Sun's. You should be able to get my email address by clicking on the link to richm31415 next to Author:. If not, post here again.

  • Will the new Macbook run WoW on full settings?

    Will it run it perfectly, or will it be too frustrating on full settings?
    I don't see any point of getting a Macbook Pro (base model) right now just for the graphics card...
    Thanks.

    These forums are great, a lot better then asking GameFAQS...
    (Although due to the time differences i get answers a bit quicker there, but the quality is what is important and is worth waiting a little bit longer for!)
    The replies i got there consisted of "64mb shared?!? it won't even load on normal settings" "Buy a new computer, mac is trash."
    Thank you for your replies.

  • IMac with Snow Leopard doesn t work without second display connected

    Hi,
    I've a iMac 24" and I would like to resell it urgently.
    But I've a big problem, if I disconnect my second display (belinea 20"), the iMac screen become grey or blue after many second.
    If I boot system, after the grey clock : nothing, grey or black screen.
    The Os is snow leopard disc, update version (10.6)
    The iMac version is iMa8,1
    The EFI bios is : IM81.00c1.b00
    I tried :
    Reinstall with format
    Utility disc on boot cd (scan disk & rights repair)
    Even when I try to boot cd without second screen, I ve white screen
    (after a update to 10.6.4)
    Help me please

    Hi Tony,
    I don't how these instructions are the same, here is what the article says:
    _Resetting PRAM and NVRAM_
    • Shut down the computer.
    • Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    • Turn on the computer.
    • Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    • Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    • Release the keys.
    Your original post said *"Restart the mac and depress the alt, command, P and R keys simultaneously. You should hear the boot chime. Keep the keys depressed until you hear the boot chime a further three times. On the final boot chime release the keys and let the mac boot normally."* How I understand your post that totals 4 chimes vs. the 2 Apple specifies. Am I missing something?

  • New Imac with Tiger want Leopard and ILife without waiting

    I just got a new IMac for Christmas but it has Tiger on the hard drive and in the box. (Last time I buy hardware from Amazon). I do have a full Leopard install disc I used on my Laptop. Can I use this while I wait for my free Leopard upgrade to come or is this breaking the user agreement? Secondly if I do a clean install when I get Leopard how do I get ILife back onto the IMac without buying it again?(since it came pre- installed)?

    The other dupe is gone. Wonder what would have happened if I got the star on that post? Easy come, easy go?
    I was not here for the original post system, wherein if I simply posted, "what a great day" I would get points for no reason at all except that I typed something. You certainly would not want that, would you?
    When you see people with zillions of credits, look at the date they registered. Most were here when the credits flowed like green beer on St. Pat's day on Brody Mountain.
    I think you are dwelling on the few exceptions, however. Most people here actually do earn their stars and for those who do not like the system, they can simply ignore it.
    The truth is that I did answer his question in that now deleted post first, and that is probably why the credit for the solution. Yes?
