Dude, any idea how to get Razer keyboard / Naga mouse to work right? I can't do things like Shift+Mouse button 1 on my mini
Anyway my M1 Mac mini with 16gb ram I just turned Classic BC up to 10 and it's flawless. Way better than my gaming PC, which I just sold. That thing had a 3gb GTX1060 and 32gb RAM. I thought it'd smoke this Mac. It doesn't.
Bro pls tell me can I use this for as my gaming pc pls tell me bro pls tell me
I subscribed you bro I'm from sri lanka 🇱🇰 I recommend others to watch this
Channel
Superb work bro I need this video
Just checking back in, I'm running the exact same graphics setup as you in game, and actually have the 16gb version. I get some extreme pixel distortion on the "blacks" in game at some points, really noticeable looking at some of the tabards and gear. Any idea what this could be and how to fix it?
Thanks!
Can you da a LFR test with the m1?
We might get a new M1 Mini before the end of the year with the M1X can't wait to see that one!!
Thanks for the great video! What system monitor are using?
try shadowlands and full raid se what you have? mine friend looking for a mac for wow
I have the same mac mini and even 16 gb ram but for some reasons, it only recommended me graphic number 2. Do you know why this is
"Anything over 75 or 80fps is smooth". *Me sitting here with my 75hz monitor 🙁
how can you reach more then 60 fps if the mac mini is setted to 60 fps by HDMI? with USB-C to Displayport you can reach more then 60 fps?
Great video! I'm considering a similar setup, although I'd also like to retain my 5k screen for daily work. Can you hook up both a native 1440p screen to play WoW on, and a 5k screen for other stuff, or does that bottleneck the M1 too much?
It’s just wow so if I can have it look good and get a smooth 60 fps out of this little machine I’m fine with that. Screw paying thousands of a full blown gaming pc. I can just put more of that money in my digital art station
Whats the software to check temps?
3 seconds into the video: You sound like Trey Parker! That is a compliment. Anyway, thanks for this video!
You seem like the right person that could answer my specific use case question. My buddy of over 20 years is wanting to gift me something that we can play wow and league on together. I would consider myself a casual player but when I play it’s at the higher end of the spectrum (heroic or mythic raids always 20 man size and medium high mythic keys)I don’t want him to waste money on a device just for wow because it’s not that important for my life, but adding something into the ecosystem I already have would be nice. This is just a gift and my buddy and I agreed if it’s just playing wow it’s too much to waste the money. My buddy gave me the limit of $1300 (I’m his sons godfather YouTube) and I can’t tell whether the Mac Mini or the MacBook Air with the m1 chip would fit my needs.
what is that app you are using to see the temperature of the mac?
This is the best channel ever. Thank you so much,helps us all who want to buy new computers
Which Mac laptop can run WoW same as Mac mini? I actually use Mac mini at work and its a beast. Im looking to buy a laptop though and use it in a clamshell mode for WoW.
Appreciate any tips
Hi, I just bought a MacBook Pro and downloaded the game. It was going very smoothly until I downloaded TotalRP add-on. afterwards it kept crashing every time I tried to make changes on the add-on or typed in the chat. They kept re-occuring every 10 mins and although I repaired the game nothing worked… Are you using any add-ons and did you experience any crashes so far? What would you suggest?
Thank you for this video! I plan on getting a mac mini this week.
My mouse doesn’t move so fluent on my studio Mac. How did you get your to.
how does retail ( shadowlands) play on the base mac mini with the settings slider at 10 ( I have an 1080p 75 Hz monitor )
After watching this I’m buying one for sure, I’m getting this for web development however being able to play wow is definitely an added bonus.
Dude there is a naga Razer towards the end of your video, why didn’t you hook it up ? Is it not compatible ?
How about the temperature/heat?
My m1 MacBook air heating and game crashing 🙁
How's the temps, also is there fan noise playing wow?
What app do you use to monitor the temperatures etc?
Ty lingou, na co tam mas tolik reklam
Awesome results! Can you do an update video similar to this one for Wrath Classic?
which app are you using to track the cpu gpu and temperature and stuff , up on top right?
Hey @Montie I like to know what app you use to measure the temperature, thanks in advance
No matter what I do mine doesn't go above 60fps, i also have max FPS unchecked.
How is the game running on the Dragonflight Pre Patch now? Could u give us an update? Thanks alot
resolution is not pretty kick ass and the 120 hz have almost become a standard nowdays..
just say it, the mac sucks for gaming compared to PC but it still does it decently while being small and all…
Its a nice machine, just not for games like wow 🙂
it only kicks intels butt on applications where it is specifically designed for it, same if it was AMDs butt.. also, 8gb ram in 2020 ? thats just pathetic that apple only gives 8gb as standard, that is the standard of 2012 or further back, and that M1/M2 chip SHARES the ram with the GPU – absolutely horrific with only 8gb..
"you dont really need the memory, 8gigs is fine" Typical APPLE fan boy statement, making up excuses for Apple…
I’ve got a 2017 iMac 27” 4k and a 2nd monitor hooked up. I run wow on an external drive currently. Would this be better than what I’ve currently got? Should I go with the m2 mini?
Do you still like the Mac mini for games like Wow? After time do you still suggest not needing any higher specs than the base models like more memory or gpu or cpu?
Ye feels good for me too. But if you pull more mobs in a dungeon it goes to 20-30 fps and feel shit
Hey
Quick question. I have the exact same monitor as you and just ordered a mac mini m2, is there a specifik ”display port to usb-c”cable i need? And is that all i would need for it to work? Thanks!
