Q: imac et bootcamp

Bonjour,

je suis depuis 35 ans sous Pc (dans l'ordre pc Windows, puis plus pc Linux).

 

Je suis actuellement de plus en plus tenté de prendre un Imac, mais je suis quasi certain d'installer boot camp car je suis gamer et, si j'ai bien compris c'est nécessaire.

Ma question est : si j'installe mon windows 10 sous boot camp j'aurais a "subir" toutes les mises a jours drivers et système qui justement sont une des raisons me fait quitter Windows ?

 

merci d'avance de vos retour

    no idea what you're saying but for bootcamp questions you will likely meet a better group to answer in the bootcamp forum Boot Camp

    Standard WHQL drivers usually create problems on a Mac. AMD and Intel GPU drivers are usually different due to Apple modifications to such hardware. If you decide to get an iMac, you can install Windows (W8/W10 are recommended). Applications -> Utilities -> Bootcamp Assistant provides Apple-supported drivers for all Apple-specific hardware. These can be downloaded to a USB2 flash drive using

    Once you have these, you can run setup.exe in the Bootcamp folder to install Apple drivers. W10 'forced updates' are another issue on a Mac. I suggest you disable such updates, using the following link as an example.

    Merci pour ces informations.
    je pense que je vais encore hésiter un peu.

    Please try to install Windows via Bootcamp. If you run into any issues, please post with specific issue details. The worst-case scenario is to remove the Windows installation. Is you decision to buy an iMac dependent on this? If yes, you can install Windows and test within a time window which allows return of the iMac back to Apple.

     

    You may also want to consider a Mac Mini, but it has Intel GPUs, unlike the iMac which has AMD GPUs, and can support both.
