Preordered a 15" Touch Bar yesterday with the 460 and the 3,9ghz i7. Will arrive beginning of January. Not a big gamer but how do you guys think the following games will run on it: Fallout 4, Mass Effect series, Bioshock series, Assassin's Creed series, Witcher series, Skyrim, Tomb Raider, Batman, Far Cry series, FIFA 17, GTA 5

I think since 2014 I haven't played a lot of computer games but I wanted to get into it again but I don't want to build a gaming computer or buy a ps4 or some other console.

Will those games run decently in 720p?

>>57748995

>>57749056
Why do you need to insult? I use that Macbook mostly for Video and photo work. I'm just curious if it can handle those games. If not I will just buy a Playstation 4. Which I can do, since I'm not a NEET with not disposable income at all.

Thanks guys. I looked it up on Steam and since 2013 I haven't bought any PC games at all. The last PC I bought was Metro Last Light and since that I've only played FIFA and Gta so nothing really interesting. Wanted to try out the Mass Effect series, Bioshock, Fallout and Witcher mostly. If it's not happening no problem but would really be a nice extra.

I do have macbook prices on dankpads.com based by processor. :P

Had a few Late 2009 and Mid 2010 Macbooks
A lot of them were in ugly shape but had good batteries. Tossed a 250GB HDD and 4GB RAM, and sold em for $90 to $110 w/o AC adapters

Had a few local sales of decent 09 & 10 models for $130 and $150 w/ AC.
Had a very good condition 2010 model, tossed a 128GB SSD and the fucker sold for $230 via ebay.

I'm still using a base early 2011 Macbook Pro.
Battery is like 80% i think, i think i'm holding to it until 2019 or 2020 tops, it used to be my main editing machine because of FCPX but whenever i switch to 4K it won't hold up any longer.

Is buying a non Retina 13 inch from 2012 a bad idea? I could easily upgrade ram and put an ssd in it.

What happens if your Touchbar breaks? There is no Power Button so how do you start the Mac?

>>57754486
You are correct, at least about their Macs.

>>57757369
There's a big difference between Mac OS and iOS, and that is firmware signing. You can't downgrade an iOS device without powerful exploits. A Mac is different. You can just torrent a stock OS X dmg image and create a bootable flash drive in disk utility. Then restart the Mac and you can install that OS X version, no questions asked. If Apple drops support, you can still patch the stock OS X dmg, then grab some kexts and tools from the hackintosh community to get the latest version. You also have the choice of Windows, GNU/Linux, BSD, Android x86, or any OS that runs on x86 and has drivers for your hardware. Shit on Apple mobile devices all you like, they're shit, but Apple laptops/desktops are great.

You can install Windows 10 on 2009 laptop without any problems, and there is a chance you won't even have to install any drivers manually since Windows will fetch any non-included drivers from Windows update.
You can install a kernel 4.8 (from 2016) based Linux distro on a 2009 laptop. If you don't have a Broadcom wifi, it will install without any problems.
Now, Apple only had one job. They had much lesser range of hardware to support. There is no reason whatsoever not to drop support for 2009 Nehalem-era hardware.

makes sense, not having a power button you can press and doesn't depend on the os or extra software was really stupid.
People with the touchbar model will soon realize the whole thing is just a gimmick that is useful 1 out of 100 times you are doing stuff. I thought it was cool to keep an eye on background tasks like a download, or a copy dialog or for example a progress bar with extra options on some process.

>>57759189
>Does a technology board not know what a fucking button is?
just got here and I asked because I thought that was actually the power button too. Don't be a cocky faggot and remember not every fingerprint reader on a laptop doubles as a button too. Not that it would be difficult to pull out it's pretty much the same as a home button on an iphone/ipad.

My point was, this is a very dumb thing to assume. There MUST be one somewhere even if you can't see it. There always has to be a way to hard-reset. Even the iPhone 7 has a way, its now the volume down + lock because the Home button is now essentially software controlled.

I agree with you there, but then again Apple is doing really stupid shit, I wouldn't be surprised they keep shooting themselves on the foot. Actually shooting customers on the foot, they are overcharging a lot for this laptop for less.
Only great thing I've seen in every review has been the speed of the SSD. Yes you can't upgrade but it's really fucking fast and useful for people working several huge or small files at once.

My 10-year old Thinkpad can boot up on reading a fingerprint. And it also has a separate power button, if I don't want to use a large security breach to start up my computer.

The 13" pro runs hot as hell with the fans at full speed, but don't throttle
and the 15"s without dgpus do the same
It's just nearly every 15" with a dgpu that throttles under load

It doesn't actually get hot externally, so who cares about how hot the processor gets? It's not a problem until it shuts off. As for the fans, the default fan curve doesn't allow the fans to go much over 55% speed.

there is a followup video that you are missing, but a "Pro" card isn't for gaming.

>>57759982
Yeah, a "Pro" device is meant to throttle to 800mhz in any task a professional would actually do.

>>57759843
from the only 15" with dgpu that you can prevent from throttling and dying
>>57759858
i mean it is
none of the modern macbooks with igpus throttle
if you force igpu only and run a full stress test none of them throttle
well the 2016 15" might, havent seen it yet for sure and I refuse to buy it.
Also I'm pretty sure his is fucked, because my 2013 15" would run at full max turbo boost under a cpu only load, and it would only throttle to like ~2ghz with cpu and gpu load
>>57759887
I mean the 2015 13" and the 2013 13" get really hot and run the fans maxed out under heavy load
>>57758568

pretty much any laptop with a 35 watt gpu runs at 3 fps

not clock speed, turbo over stock
also 800mhz is the minimum clock speed on most computers (outside of ivy bridge where it's at 1.2ghz)
>>57760108
that could be something with linpack
using prime 95 or the yes dev null thing like 5 times on my friends macbook and it will stay running at its full turbo boost speed for the ~20 before it slows down to like 3ghz to stay at 85c forgot the exact clocks since I did that a while ago.

Well yes, it's a very demanding stress test. Under other stresses like Prime 95 it maintains it's maximum 500MHz boost and settles at around 85-90C with fans at about 45-50%.

How are the older MBPs for daily use? I was thinking of getting a 2009-2011 MBP.

>overheating

that really is inexcusable.

I don't know what the state of laptops are really like in 2016, but I think the #1 thing that I want out of a high-end laptop is being able to rest it on my lap and it never gets warm.

That may be impossible to expect out of a laptop, but it's a quality I'd look for if i were gearing up to spend $2000 on a laptop.

No really, you bought a laptop who's only claim to fame is thin bezels. That's the dumbest thing ever. Should have just bought a ThinkPad. They're the only Windows machines which are tolerable to use and I have a couple of old ones. Enjoy that frictiony rubber-like trackpad in 3 months.

Is this bait? They are NOT easy to repair cuz every shit is soldered to the motherboard and Apple service always charges 700$ and replaces motherboard instead of repairing it. Only upgrade you can do is plug normal mouse and monitor. Warranty? With moisture detectors going red when there is raining 20 miles away? Pls

hi guys, first of all, is the irc tag wrong? when i join the channel i am alone and create it
second, does anyone have any experience with OWC SSDs?
i have a 2012 MBA (first model with SSD) and it came with a 64 gb disk
i'm looking into buying a new one and this is the only seller i think?

>>57771598
OWC is a meme.

>>57771686
but i still need a higher capacity internal drive, i need to install windows and creating a partition on a 64gb drive is a joke, i won't have space for anything on either OS
is there a better choice?

>>57771768
Get an adapter and a regular SSD.

>>57771879
you mean something like a 28 Pin SSD to M.2 adapter?
but what about the size of the ssd?
i dont think it would fit

>>57771918
fit inside the laptop i mean, standard ssds seem to be bigger than the ones inside the macbooks

>>57771918
Yea. They should. Most are 22mm x 80mm while the Apple SSD is 24mm x 109mm.

Have containment general. People bother to come here to shitpost -> result: macfags go to all other threads to shit on.

Went to an Apple store and tried out the new MBs with touchbar.

Gotta say, I really liked it. But the function keys collapsing away is annoying as fuck and I couldn't find a way to have them stay there. It's annoying to have to press the expand button and then press the button I want. If no apps are displaying function keys, why the fuck aren't the default function keys using the whole screen? Just wasting a bunch of space.

Anyone know if external GPUs play nice with the new Macbooks with Thunderbolt? Anyone with experience with the setup?

I don't do too much gaymen but I'd like to be able to play Overwatch on highest settings at 1080p or 1440p, will I be able to do this with le mbp and an external GPU?

You could probably do that with the discrete GPU 15", couldn't you?

>>57772530
I could link you, but you'll need to suck my little soldier. :3

>>57772017
