Can Macbook Pro 13(2015) can handle games?

[7seconds]

Good day guys,

Before I buy a Macbook Pro 13(2015), I want to ask if it can handle online games like World of Warcraft or DOTA 2?

Thanks

My macbook pro which is what use for my work/travel and it plays wow on ultra @ 60fps without any of the newer AA stuff enabled, but the only thing I really need to do is when I do a raid with a bunch of people 20+ I need to put the settings to high. But overall great laptop for playing wow as long as you have some other reason for buying it.

How about the temperature while raiding 25 man?

Macs run really cool, I do a lot of editing from security conference streams. I've had mine going full blast before for 4-5 hours and it never heated up that much. So you can raid for hours and hours and you won't really notice it getting hot.

I dont play WOW but I play Dota 2 alot, my previous laptop was the late 2014 macbook pro retina 13 (MGX72) and it struggled to run DOTA 2 ~30fps on 720p low settings. The 2015 uses the iris 6100 GPU which is 10% better than the 5100 on my model so I'd say it is bad for gaming, very bad. I had to switched to the alienware 13 (i7, gtx860m, ssd512, QHD touchscreen) for 1340$ on Amazon. If you're into gaming with portability, good battery life (worse than the MBPr but still the best in its rank of gaming laptop), go for the Alienware 13
