    Hi!!

    just bought my new macbook, installed bootcamp and running XP flawlessly!!! (boot up in 23 secs!!!!)

    ive played a few games already (CoD2, Blazn Angels, Battlestations...) and then tried the demo of CoH. It runs fine at lowest settings, i mean, fps are acceptable (>20) but when you move across the map, fps lower to 5 until you stop the camera.

    I know that my x3100 is not the best for gaming, but its weird that fps droop so suddenly. Is this issue only with the demo? would the full game+patches run better?

    my comp:

    Core 2 Duo T8300
    2ghz RAM
    intel X3100

    CoH is quite demanding, i wouldn't buy it for an x3100 equipped rig
