Theres no way thats a 2012 mac mini with a 7600k considering the 7600k came out this year, nor would a 7600k be in something like a mac mini as its an unlocked processor ??? Anyway, 2012 model with an i5 is running HD graphics 4000, its gonna be playable, but probably not that great even my athlon 5350's integrated graphics outperform HD 4000 and it doesnt like 1080p over level 5 graphics in most games

I'm just gonna stop you right now, do not bullcrap to me. I know a lot more about this than you do. The 2012 mac mini i5 model is an i5 3210m, which is socket G2. It is a 35w mobile processor, designed for laptops. An i5 7600k is a 91w socket lga 1151 desktop processor. It does not physically fit into G2. Nor could you do any kind of magic to somehow get a 7600k into that system. As far as will it play roblox, well, yeah probably. Not great at all though, I wouls highly suggest looking into a laptop with a decent dedicated gpu. A Thinkpad T410 with a quadro NVS option would be great for roblox and those are sub 100$.

dont get all defensive over being called out just dont lie to begin with there was no reason to say theres a "dual core i5 7600k" in your 2012 mac mini, just say its a 2012 mac mini
