I've ran ffxi using Bootcamp on my 2010 15 inch macbook pro laptop for the past four years, but I have occasional lag and the picture quality gets choppy sometimes when I have animations on, same with when I'm in big alliances and animations are going off every second.
Anyways, I'm looking to possibly buy a new laptop solely for ffxi, or upgrade the HD on my current macbook pro to eliminate the lag in big groups. I'm not the most computer savvy person, so I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on what path I should take. Ideally, I'd like to not have to shell out $1500+ for a top of the line laptop for ffxi, so if there are any cost efficient HD alternatives that I could upgrade to on my current 2010 macbook pro, that would be great. Thanks!
