Do I need a driver update for the radeon? I downloaded the latest but it does nothing useful. I do not get the advanced controls to turn off v-sync or a/a and this and that. The latest radeon driver does not support the x1600 for macs yet appearantly? Is this true? I can't find anything on the internet about it. I'd really like to see what this puppy has.

I think that is pretty normal , the X1600 is a very cheap and bad GPU. I tried 2 of them and they both were sub-par.

If you had given us the brand and model number of the camera, this would have been a much easier question to answer. In real life, shooting stills at 1 fps or faster is really too fast to try to compose and expose images of any worth. Continuous shooting is really something that is only done when you need four or five shots in a row to make an animated GIF file. I shoot sports and the most images I shoot in a row is about three images in five seconds. I anticipate and time my shots at the peak of action. If I just pressed the shutter down and let my camera shoot a 11 fps, there would be no way that I could edit (sort) all those possible images and have them to the publisher an hour after the game. As it is, sorting through the hundred or so shots I do take, makes meeting the deadline tough. And as mentioned above, the video feature probably shoots at 30 fps, but at a much lower resolution than stills.

I assume you are playing these games in Windows under Bootcamp? If so, that's your problem. The performance of windows on a mac is very poor. It's good enough for office applications, but not for gaming.
You could try reducing the resolution or turning off effects to speed up the framerate.
