I'm debating wether to build a PC or get a fully loaded Mac mini (2.6ghz i7 and upgrade RAM to 16gb)
Do you guys think that with the specs of the mini that games like (PlanetSide2 [windows only]) would run well with medium to high settings through parallels?

Compared to the link below...

What do you think?

I know PCs totally have better gaming performance..blah blah blah. But I know the mini should be slower, but by how much?

I would use it for learning/coding Java, gaming (Minecraft on OSX, and windows games like PlanetSide2 on Windows 7 through parallels).

I REALLY want to learn code on OSX, but still want to play Windows games, so Parallels is perfect for me, but I am also getting a MacBook Air (11"). So is it worth building a PC instead of the Mac mini and coding on the Macbook Air? Or should I just work with Parallels?
