So this is probably a question I’ll get laughed at for asking, but is there an alternative to Proton on MacOS for playing Windows games on Mac? Linux has this application and paired with Steam it works wonders (for the most part). But when I try to find a way to do this on my MacBook, I find...

I have a late 2014 27" 5k Retina iMac i7 32gb Ram Radeon R9 x295X 4gb GPU I have a peculiar and frustrating issue where my cursor locks in place for about 5 seconds at a time.... I have a wired keyboard, and a wired mouse, which worked on my old mac, works on the new mac, apart from when it...

Hey 👋 So I recently got a a Samsung 49” super ultra wide, to go with my mbp M1 Max/64gb. To be clear it’s a work related purchase, and I didn’t buy it for gaming, and I’m not really a gamer, I have an old Xbox I very rarely play. But man this screen is so damn gorgeous, super amazing for...

Hi all! The main question of this topic - is it harmful for MacBook to play on it? I tried to play Resident Evil Village and CS:GO on my MacBook Pro 14 M1 Pro. I am impressed how good MacBook handles the graphics. Everything is very beautiful and smooth, but when I play CS:GO it gets pretty...

Some gaming-related memes. Any platforms. Feel free to add more.

Post the name (and download link if possible) of your favorite PowerPC app (even games work). If you have any questions reply to this message so I can separate questions from the other chitchat about apps.

Since I received my iPhone 14 PM I immediately noticed there was an issue with the touch input of the device. In games, you’ll notice a stutter whenever tapping the display, and if your fingers are held down on the screen (using a virtual joystick for example), you get framedrops and stuttering...

I'm not sure if this is an issue with iOS 16 or all iPhones 14 pros, but there is stuttering with most of my games on this new phone. It's supposed to be the fastest SoC in a phone yet it's stuttering and dropping frames in games like Terraria or Monster Hunter Stories. I have around 40 games...

Hello, i have yet another post about the nvidia quadro K6000 im wondering what card it compares to on the consumer market? My girl friend is buying it for me for my mac pro and im already using the nvidia quadro K2000 and i love the performance it has to offer with gaming and video editing. so...

So, I just installed Windows 10 on its own SSD for gaming purposes and it will crash eventually mid-game. I did some reading around these forums around temperatures and I believe these temps may not be the issue causing the crashing. I play for about 15-20 minutes and entire system will freeze...

I’m writing this post on a decade-old 13-inch MacBook Pro with absolutely miserable graphics hardware that was miserable the day this computer was manufactured. It used to be that the 13-inch MacBook Pro, a very popular computer in the heyday of this particular model, was abysmal as a gaming...

So I'm trying to compile Amnesia The Dark Descent on Linux Gentoo (on my G5 Quad) - because the original Mac PPC version was unstable (on ATI) and sluggish on NVIDIA - (and as you know on Linux you can have a bit more modern GPUS - I have HD 5450 currently). Plus even if those reasons are not...

Like many prospective M2 MacBook Air buyers, I have seen GregsGadgets' game benchmark video showing the M2 Air with 8 GPU cores outperforming the 10 GPU core unit, side by side -- presumably due to more significant thermal throttling in the 10-GPU core unit due to the additional cores. Greg...

Hello, So I've recently started testing a game (Skyrim Special Edition, on Bootcamp to be exact) on both my Macs, one of which is an iMac and the other a MacBook Pro. Now, I'm perfectly aware that Macs aren't really designed for gaming, and while I have considered something a little more...

While the games are old, its still a pretty impressive collection of old games macs can run now!

I have 16GB M1 MBA. Love it to bits. While playing some games on it, I noticed that CPU temps reach 95 degree celsius and stay at that temps the whole session. (used the "Hot" app). The "battery gas gauge" temps were around 45C max. I am not worried about processor getting fried, I know Apple...

Any game that I play ends up freezing 15 minutes into it, it repeatedly comes unfreezes and freezes again after that point. I'm not sure what to do. Has anyone had a similar problem? Btw, I was playing Spelunky 2 and Streets Of Rogue, simple game.

Hello everyone! I am currently using a MBP 2021 14" base model, which has a M1 Pro processor with 16GB of RAMs. Before this device, I have been using an Early 2015 MBP 13" base model as well, which had Windows 10 installed via the Boot Camp. I used to play CS GO on that device, encountered with...

Hi everyone, I have bought a MacBook Pro 14 after a few years with a PC. Many years ago I used to play games on my Macs with Razer mice and everything was perfect, I love razer brand and when I switched to PC I continued with them. I sadly discovered that now Razer doesn't support anymore...

I have a friend who is looking for a new laptop. They find the MacBook appealing and for what it's worth, the ARM MacBooks are very good for what they are. One issue that's come up is that she likes to play League of Legends as well as streaming her gameplay on Twitch. Would she be able to...
