M3 Pro: 7 high-end games tested on Mac

How do you get your controller to work when gaming on crossover. Can someone please help.

overwatch on low? something aint right, I know it's emulated but I have a M3 Pro with less cores and on high at 1440p I get 90-100 fps

How does it perform if you connect it to external big gaming monitor (3K/4K)? As the some resources will be used for external monitor. On another note, can you run Assassins Creed latest version on it using crossover?

How hot does the mac runs when playing all these games?

My $1100 gaming pc is like 5 times better 💀💀

Nice to see. I’m getting a new mac for college and wanted to play bg3 in my free time so good to know it runs ok.

And this kind of performance Apple did in just 3 years of Apple Silicon existence on a market. Just imagine what Apple will do in another 3 years.

mac gaming will truly shine when we will get M3 MAX (40 core GPU) level of performance in M3 Pro (base one) machine. I would say give it like 3 more years and we can expect a very good result even with RT enabled. Speaking of RT as M3 series supports it why didn't you do extensive test on it? Are you planning to make a separate video for it?

Lol, if M3 was tht powerful, why does it perform so poorly in gaming, apple claim that the M3 hav the best igpu vr with somekind o unlimited vam, Lol

Please bring more videos for m3 pro chip

Would escape from Tarkov work?

How can I play Pong?

I don't think anyone in their right mind would buy a mac for gaming. But we are creative professionals who use mac for our work - also it's just a much more seamless OS than microsoft windows, and the resale value is much higher - so it's more expensive for a mac - but when you want to upgrade you can sell your old machine still for good money. So gaming is a side thing on our expensive computers. And I just use a ps4 through a game capture card to play games and it's fine or just use a ps4 with a 13 in oled monitor directly into that - cause I have a 2nd monitor for my mac already. But still, this is awesome. And who cares - it doesn't hurt that mac gaming might start to happen. I mean, buying a steam deck or 2nd windows pc for gaming - that's like $500 - 800 and who wants to do that.

Would love to see dota2 being tested

Am wondering if getting M3 Max, how much the performance is going to jump. I see there are a lot of things need to do for x86 AAA game titles. Able to do more testing of other x86 AAA games in the future and if you're able to get a hand on M3 Max for testing, that would be awesome thanks!

If you're thinking of buying an M3 to play videogames, you better save 500-800$ and play at 4k +90fps and high graphics preset in a Windows laptop with a proper gaming videocard.

Honestly better results than I thought. Considering the thermal throttle and fan noise problem of the m3 max on the 14 inch, I might get the 14 inch M3 Pro version with full cores and 36 gigs of ram.

I am a big apple fan. all my devices are apple except for computers. Ngl for the price tag apple puts this is quite not good at all. My Gaming PC I built cost me $1,400 I can Run almost any game 144fps on Ultra Graphics and at the same time watch something on my second monitor... I really wish apple was able to deliver more for the gamers. for now Windows is my go to.

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro 16" M3pro (Late 2023) and encountered a high-resolution graphics issue with Starcraft Remastered. Unlike my previous MacBook Pro 16" (Late 2019), the game does not support high resolution on the new model.

I would appreciate your guidance or any necessary updates to enable high-resolution graphics for Starcraft Remastered on the MacBook Pro 16" M3pro (Late 2023).

So new Mac's after M2 are capable of gaming but they are held back due to the lack of number of native game support

What’s about m3 Max?

How about M3 Max 40-core GPU?

Do anyone have an idea how to fix issues with crossover: avx instructions for cpu
Got this error when try to start a game. Example: Age Of empires 4

I never saw someone tested out Roblox

Can you please test M3 Max?

How were your thermals and fan noise >?

does ray tracing work/perform well with m3 pro on some games (like cyberpunk 2077) ?

Any chance of playing Paragon The Overprime from Steam? It‘s a free MOBA game. Thanks!

I know its the wrong platform to ask this question, but has anyone being able to run RDR2 on a Mac using GPTK and if so can you specify those steps.

what about FarCry6?

M3 max binned chip performance please

finally someone testing the real important shit, not like MKBHD, who says just because he does not play games on his mac, won't test nothing. praps dude. Still, its kinda sad you had to do stuff around to play some of this games, not just naturally play them.

It’s been 8 days

hey, would u test it with gears of war 5 please

how on earth are you getting the controller to work? I spent a night trying to get games in crossover to respond to my ps5 controller like you show here.

30-50fps is not capable at all let's be honest

🐌

I just want genshin impact native on mac os

Nope. how do you play with mouse with 1 button? not acceptable.

WoW does run on M3 Max, but after a while you hear the fans. Didn't test a lot tho, since I'm still waiting for a specific dock, to plugin all my stuff and Monitors. x)

We want to see battlefield on Mac

Can you run Xbox Gamepass on it?

thing is it cost way more than what a gaming pc cost to build.

But can it run runescape at 120hz?

M3 max with 48gb ram. Cyberpunk 2077 plays on ultra 😎

But can it play Warzone and Star Citizen?

Also genshin impact run super smoothly on the m1 macbook air

Great to see! Please share your experience with Switch emulation :)
