Cooling generally ends up being a huge bottleneck for laptops with gaming even when graphics aren't.

    ah, gotcha. It's a Sony Vaio:

    I bought it primarily for work, but figured it could support the game too ha. Another idea I got was to put windows on my iMac, which has more than enough capacity to support the game.

    Depending on what the graphics card in the iMac is like, that is an option. I have no trouble playing off of my MacBook Pro's Bootcamp installation.
