Salam.
Hope you all are fine and having a very fine Ramadan.
Coming to the topic.
My uncle sent me Apple Macbook Pro about a week back from Dubai.
It has following specs:
15" Retina Display
i7 2.3 Ghz 4th Gen
500GB SSD HDD
Intel Iris Pro 1024MB Display along with Nvidia GT 750m 2Gb
16Gb RAM.

What i want to ask is that i am not a gaming geek,i play games like FIFA and want to play GTA V if released on pc but my demand is not playing it on high graphics.
Tell me that is this mac worth keeping or should i sell it off?
Other thing can anyone tell me how to run Windows game on MAC? If some sought of reboot is required then i am a complete layman when it comes to MAC, so suggest me a place in RWP/Islamabad from where i can get a relevant software installed in my mac to play windows games.

Bullshit,You can play Games like fifa and Gta V on your mac. I play New games on my laptop (Dell 7537 i5) and it has the same specs as yours except i have a weaker processor and a DDR5 750m. Just try a pirated game on windows to see if it works.

Hi [MENTION=72007]Mussab[/MENTION] and everyone else. First off, since it has been nearly two weeks since you made this post, there is every likelihood that your query stood satisfied. In the less likely scenario of it not having been satisfied and for the future reference of any friends, here's my experience:
I have a mid 2013 macbook air, with a miniscule 128 GB hard drive and a measly 4 GB RAM on a core i5, 1.8 ghz processor.
I use the MacBook Air mainly for work (drafting, writing, reviewing documents etc etc). Since my work involves alot of researching and I have to refer to numerous documents/ resources a at the same time therefore I decided to buy an external display. Although Mac os's 'spaces' is a wonderful utility for having numerous desktops that you cycle through; I have a always found windows to be very effective with multiple screens management.
So I installed Windows 8.1 on my MBA alongside the Mac os and only gave a tiny 38GB space to Windows. I installed an office 2013 suite, Dropbox and Evernote on the windows and I still have 19GB space left(disable the windows hibernation feature to save around 3-4 GBs.
Now I have both Mac os and Windows on the same machine and they work flawlessly, no issues whatsoever. given better specs such as your MBP's, you'd not have any issues.
