    i heard that you had to lower the DirectX thingy when playing CSS to 7.
    With that said, what "kind" of directx can the mac handle?

    i plan to play games like css, guild wars and priston tale 2. pwede kaya?

    Well, you're getting the wrong information because I can play those games with DirectX 9 and 10. Before you worry too much, you should read up on things from reliable sources.

    well, i did my research actually. before playing, you supposedly have to type in something.
    which what everyone said, lowers or does something to do directx thing.
