Macbook Pro or Air

[Buzzes Cinema]

So, I am in the market for a new computer. I need something portable. I would prefer to be able to play Minecraft with acceptable framerates on. I need something more powerful than an i7 4GB RAM Mac Mini, but I would prefer for it to be as cheap as possible. Thanks in advance!

Do you need a Mac? Why not a windows laptop ?

I could consider it. I need something with SSD and BETTER specs for the same price. Anything you recommend? If it is windows, I would like to be able to game on it

You can definitely find that. It's mostly preference though! Are you looking for something in the 13" Macbook Pro price range?

If you want to play Minecraft well, you must get the Macbook Pro and not the Air. The Air is catered to casual users and students who want a lightweight OSX option.

I'd consider this ASUS laptop with a 256GB SSD and a GTX 850M, which will run Minecraft at higher framerates - (http/www.amazon.com/N550JK-DB74T-Full-HD-Touchscreen-Laptop-Aluminum-Body/dp/B00LO3K002/ref=sr_1_18?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1407532283&sr=1-18&keywords=asus+laptop+SSD)

Or, I'd check out our custom-built laptop line @ iBUYPOWER (Promotional Code - 5% off purchases of $1,299 or more - BOXBOX5) like the Battalion, MSI, or Gigabyte, which can be configured to have an SSD and most of the GPU's come standard with enough performance to run Minecraft.

Let me know if you have any questions or any need more recommendations!
