Hey guys :p I have a question relating to running windows on a mac, though its probably a stupid question so you'll have to forgive me for that xD So I have a basic understanding of how you run windows on a mac, you install it and Im going the bootcamp method so that itll just boot up straight into windows. I was just wondering if installing windows on my Mac will take up alot of memory? Im not sure on this as I have very limited knowledge on computers. I just don't want windows to slow down my Mac alot.

Thanks for anyone who answers :p and sorry if its a stupid question xD I have a feeling it is

Either use a virtual machine (if you just need windows to run specific software) or install it using bootcamp (for gaming or anything more heavy). I have no experience with bootcamp but I think it does the partitioning for you. A fresh install of windows should only take around 10+ Gb I think, depends on which version.

Yea Im planning on using it for gaming which is why I was going the bootcamp way. Is that 10+ Gb of Ram?
