Mac Mini For Wow

broken image


The Mac mini has had the same dimensions for the better part of a decade, when the unibody Mac mini was introduced in 2010, with its 7.7 x 7.7 x 1.4-inch design. Below are the minimum and recommended system specifications for World of Warcraft® and the Shadowlands® expansion on Windows® and Mac®. Due to potential programming changes, the minimum system requirements for World of Warcraft may change over time. Note: For a list of compatible video hardware, see our Supported Video Cards list. Here's my Unboxing and Review of the 2020 Mac mini. We only have a double bump up in storage as the internal spec change and the same 8th gen processors.

Hi all,
I'm considering getting a Mac mini to 'replace' my 17' PowerBook. The mini meets or exceeds the specification of my 17' PowerBook in all but one area - graphics - and it's this that's causing me concern.
I use all the usual Mac applications, but need bearable framerates in World of Warcraft Does anyone with an updated Mac mini know how well the updated graphics chip copes with World of Warcraft ? On paper the PowerBook has much more graphics grunt (it's a 64Mb Mobility Radeon 9600 to the best of my knowledge, maybe a 128Mb, not entirely sure and I'm at work so can't check) than the mini, but the only time I use the graphics grunt is with World of Warcraft.
In case you're wondering, my 17' TiBook spends most of its time on the desktop. I was going to spend £500-ish on the new mini, eBay the 17' PowerBook prior to the Intel switch, wait for Rev B. 'Intel Inside' PowerBooks (or whatever they're called) then buy the best one I can afford. The mini will tide me over until then I reckon, and once the Intel PowerBook arrives I can simply give the Mac mini to one of my sons, who will thoroughly appreciate it, meaning that the mini is a very cheap buy overall.
But if it won't do WoW at 1280x1024 with a decent framerate, it's not a goer. Hope someone here can help.
