I dont know why, but if i have a game of any sort running in the background and I open up my web browser like youtube, facebook ( or any other web application) the entire web application runs slow... I cant even run youtube videos in fullscreen or the video will lag... i must watch it in a small window while there is a game running in the background...
anyone else might have bumped to this issue ?

have never actually tried, let me try to recreate the issue tonight.

Can you provide an example of a game that causes this? Depending on the game it can use a good deal of CPU,GPU, and I/O resources and cause other apps that want to use those resources trouble.

any game , from the lowest to the highest... world of warcraft , diablo 3 , guild of wars 2, if i remember right even limbo done the same issue...
it is really annoying... such a good performance laptop and it cant handle internet + gaming... -
I recreated the issue on mine. when windowing the GPU spikes and then throttled back giving horrible jitter ( Starcraft 2 ) it seems that the 650m just cant push the pixels when it's attention is divided between applications like that. I put in a query to Apple support to see if they can fix the drivers or something.

When I played Batman Arkham City I had no problems, between going to various tasks and then back to the game. I had to look up Riddler Trophies
-
this is so strange and annoying... sometimes i want to look up things during gaming or just watch a youtube video in full screen and i must close the game...

Any new words from apple?
P.s
Reinstalling the OS doesnt solve the issue...
weird problem with my macbook pro retina game in backround + web surfing ?
