Just a quick question.
Does any one play eve of the IMac and not have more trouble than what its worth?
My new one comes soon

3.5 i7
GTX780m 4gb gddr5
8gb gddr3 mem
Normal 27" screen.
512gb flash ssd.

I really enjoy playning eve and would like to continue but not if i cant just push and play.
I play video games not sit around asking why my video game dosnt work.
Or spend hours online looking for fixes. If i cant play it nice and smooth on a 3k computer im out.
If i dont update to Yos i should be fine right?
Thanks.

Don't update to Yosemite yet. (I did.)

EVE likes RAM (the Mac client has a memory leak). Try putting some more in. I have 24GB, and an otherwise inferior machine to yours, and EVE runs well--well, it ran well. Now it's all funky, because I installed a beta OS underneath it. P
