Bought D3 & CS:GO,
tested on my mbp 15" late 2011, OS X Lion.

Here's the thing, the game runs pretty laggy or spiky.
the fps not really smooth. I can't say laggy... its like 1 - 2 sec the fps is smooth then the next thing the game spike then return to smooth and repeat all the way.

I do know that people playing d3 on mac os x is experiencing the same problem, from bnet forum.

but just tested out CS:GO, and the same thing happen except when playing offline bots. it's not latency issue for sure.

then i decided to switch to bootcamp and both games works damn smoothly.

anyone have this type of problem before and able to solve it? not going to bootcamp i meant.

mind telling me your CS:GO & Diablo 3 game settings?

Appreciate for your help around here!~
 
On D3 I had the same issue on my MBP 15" (summer 2009), I still run the game at max res but I've turned off shadows and AA completely. It made a big difference for me and actually looked better with the AA off, Bliz's AA in D3 just blurs the screen. Hope this helps mate.
