SE,we Mac users do not deserve this third class treatment!

How well do you expect a GT 650M to perform anyway? I'm on a GTX 850M win8.1 laptop and run at 1920x1080 borderless windowed with dx11 custom settings mostly set to low and most of the dx11 settings off and my laptop runs 30-60 depending on lighting/player swarm (this includes the nthan fate zerg).

Just to answer your question, my 650M MacBook pro retina (Late 2013) scored "High" on the DX11 test in the benchmark at 1920x1200 Laptop Standard settings. So given that benchmark and the fact that it runs fine through Boot Camp, I think it's reasonable to expect it to be playable on the native Mac client.

And to the haters that keep suggesting "LOL U USE MAC FOR GAMING HAAHAHAHAHA" did it ever occur to you that maybe, just maybe, we bought a Mac for other purposes and game on the side? I guess none of us have jobs or artistic hobbies that benefit from having a laptop that can do pretty much anything that isn't made of crappy plastics and doesn't have to be replaced every few years. I'm not a PC hater... in fact, windows based PCs dominate my household over Mac 4 to 2. But I bought my Mac so I could take my side work... to my couch... to my mom's house... to a friend's house... to another state... to another country... and I shelled out extra for a dGPU model so I could do the same with FFXIV.

It's not unreasonable for us to own a Mac. The people on this thread aren't idiots and from what I've seen, we're all running dGPU models which perform fine using Boot Camp. We just want the ability to play without switching OS so that we can free up space on our drives, or multi-task with our work.
