Fps Games For Mac M1



Windows gaming on the ARM-based Apple M1 is possible!

This first-person shooter from Treyarch and Activision provides three full game modes to keep you busy: Campaign, Multiplayer, and Zombies. Each mode features multiplayer options, its own unique story, and hoards of zombies to kill. And since you likely want even more zombies, the Zombies Chronicles expansion is now part of the base purchase. The GFXBench 5.0 benchmarks were tested under Apple's Metal API, and show that the ‌M1‌ often performs better than the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti and AMD Radeon RX 560 by a fair margin.

Watch how well the Apple M1 runs The Witcher 3 using CrossOver 20!

60 FPS: 1920 × 1200: High: Runs very smoothly at 60 FPS, The laptop temperature goes high after playing for long period of time which will cause FPS drops (This doesn't happen when on medium settings). Steam 🖥 M1: Mac mini 8GB 2560x1440: AUTO:HIGH. The M1 Macs can certainly handle Rise of the Tomb Raider at the lowest graphics-detail setting, posting results of 58 frames per second (fps) or greater. That handily beats the 37fps that the XPS. A YouTuber has ran performance tests with 25 different games, all played on a brand-new M1 13-inch MacBook Pro. Borderlands 3 supports the Metal API, running on Rosetta 2. Running at 1080p, the game ran at about 22.9 fps, on average. It’s not a great number, but it’s generally unplayable on most Intel Macs out there.

Apple M1 Gaming : Watch It Run The Witcher 3 On CrossOver 20!

AppleGamers successfully ran The Witcher 3 on CrossOver 20, using the 2020 Apple MacBook Pro with the new ARM-based Apple M1 SoC.

Here was their recorded gameplay of The Witcher 3 at the 1080p resolution, with the Medium graphics and post-processing presets, and VSync enabled.

They could not get the FPS counter to work, but it looks smooth and very playable, albeit with some visual artefacts.

Basically – Apple M1 gaming is not only possible, it is possible to play Windows games!

That quick gameplay showcase of The Witcher 3 shows that Windows gaming is possible on the Apple M1.

The ability to run The Witcher 3 on CrossOver 20, and at such playable frame rates, is important for two reasons.

Windows App Compatibility

The Witcher 3 is a 64-bit Windows-only game, so you wouldn’t expect it to run well on the ARM-based Apple M1, right?

Running it on the Apple M1 involves translating Windows API calls using CrossOver, and then translating x86 instructions to ARM instructions using Rossetta 2.

Yet it not only worked, it ran pretty well on the Apple M1!

Performance

While AppleGamers was not able to obtain a frame rate, The Witcher 3 appears to run pretty well at the 1080p resolution.

That shows that the Apple M1’s integrated 8-core GPU is fast, and will have no problem handling native ARM games at 1080p, and likely 1440p as well.

Apple M1 : A Quick Primer

The Apple M1 is the first ARM-based SoC (System on a Chip) designed by Apple for use in Mac computers.

Packing 16 billion transistors, it is the first chip to be manufactured on the new 5 nm TSMC process technology.

It comes with 4 high-performance Firestorm CPU cores, 4 power-efficient Icestorm cores, an 8-core GPU, and a 16-core Neural Engine.

As the M1 is based on the ARM architecture, you can natively run iPhone and iPad apps on it. However, existing macOS apps will have to be ported over, or translated on-the-fly using Rosetta 2.
