i wanna use mac air early 15,4gb ram,128ssd, i wanna install windows os(not genuine) in that mac. i want to play counter strike(global offensive) in windows os. is 4gb ram enough or it requires 8gb ram.

actually i am installing windows os (not genuine) because i am fond of counter strike

so, do mac support that game?

or it requires 8gb ram for playing counter strike?

will windows os (not genuine) cause any effect on mac?

if i install windows os on mac ,then i will allot 58 gb to windows os and rest to mac,will it makes any trouble in future,because of windows os?

Does this mean you are asking for help on using a pirate copy of Windows?

If you install Windows you have the advantage of being able to run Windows applications, and the disadvantage of having to deal with all the viruses and stuff to which Windows systems are prone.

Why not just buy the Mac version? It seems relatively inexpensive: http://store.steampowered.com/app/730/

The site I linked says $15. It also seems to have pretty low system requirements. If you are looking at a different version you need to tell us which one.

A pirated version of Windows may cause all kinds of problems including legal ones. 128GB storage is not enough to run both OSX and Windows unless you won't be installing any programs nor creating any data. If you install a legal copy of Windows the pros are that you can run Windows programs.
