COD 4 on iMac 8800GS smoking hot

Willis · 30 Jun 2008 at 11:30

Well just installed Call Of Duty 4 on my iMac via vista boot camp and I must say i'm gob smacked, it runs sweet as a nut on full setting :eek:

The 8800GS seems to handle it fine. This machine is just getting better and better.

Will throw Cyrsis at it later

and let you know how it went.

What resolution are you running COD4 on? Native at 1920x1200?

Thinking of trying boot camp on my iMac 24" with 8800GS tonight. Is it really that straight forward? Eg, no requirement to get the lastest Nvidia drivers etc? Just run Boot Camp and then play game?....Sound too good to be true!

Yep as easy as that.

and full 1920 x 1200

Could you run 3dmark06 and vantage on it?

Would be interested in the score.

I'll see what I can do

Thats pretty respectable, very tempting option to free up some space.

That's the basic drives that come with bootcamp I bet some better drivers will be hacked soon to improve that score and performance.

Lots of drivers on this site. Remember to download the inf file also and replace the original in the driver with it.

I use these for my macbook pro, driver version 175.12

Should do better than the bootcamp drivers.

Yeh I used the hacked ATI ones for my macbook pro too
