Bad form to post the same question in multiple sub forums as people will respond not knowing you've already received an answer. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Lyssa Greymoon 2,781 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Everything SL needs runs on the Apple Silicon, so it should. I guess we'll know for sure in a week or two. Link to post Share on other sites

Lindal Kidd 17,893 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Haven't you heard? AMD is the new King of Silicon. CPUs, GPUs, and gaming system chips. Wow. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
purrrkitten 205 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Macs aren't really good for gaming overall. It'll probably run tho. Link to post Share on other sites

Wow. Apple is ditching AMD too and bringing everything in house with their own ARM based processors for everything. They announced the new Mac Mini, MacBook Air and 13" MacBook Pro today. They're replacing the weakest of the Intel Macs, and the least capable of running SL. So maybe it'll be better, I hope so. I'm a little hesitant about the real world performance of ARM CPUs running Intel code, but I don't think anyone is going to miss the Intel graphics hardware. Link to post Share on other sites
Kimmi Zehetbauer 1,252 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 What I was reading is whatever works on IOS on the mobile will work on their new AS PC. So if the devs at the Lab or FireStorm or Singularity make a new client for AS based Macbooks, it should work on the pads and phones too. Link to post Share on other sites
