Hi, I currently own a Macbook Pro early 2011 and have 2 desktop gaming pc's. I have decided that I want windows on my mac because my gaming capabilities when travelling are limited. I have just purchased a Samsung 840 EVO 512GB after Linus's review. I am stuck on wether I should completely move to windows when it arrives.

 

Scream all you want that I have a Mac but I got it for free!

 

The gaming is mainly steam games!

 

Any advice?

THAT'S REALLY UP TO YOU, YOU WON'T BE DOING MUCH GAMING ON A EARLY 2011 MACBOOK, WINDOWS OR NOT ANYWAY.

You can dual boot using Bootcamp, it's actually really easy, it even downloads all the fairly up to date drivers for you.

I would recommend keeping an OSX partition on your laptop in case you ever need to use OSX, but that's completely up to you.

 

I'm pretty sure there's a trick to triple-boot OSX, Linux and Windows using boot camp, but don't hold me to that.
