It's still good depending on what you primarily use your computer for, but it should be noted that the 450 is worse than the 2015 15' MBP, performance wise.
The 450 is worse than the 2015 MacBook Pro 15 with the 370x but not from the base 2015 Macbook Pro 15 with the Iris Pro.
Sorry for error but i wrote in another thread my primarily use.
I wil use it with lightroom, photoshop and little video editing .
I will play starcraft2/diablo3/wow te similar rarely and an user told me that they work fine also with macbook retina 12"
that's false. The 450 run the geekbench better than the 370x

Thx for answer.
The 450 is better than my desktop graphic, if the benchs are true, nvidia 660.
I asked to Apple consumer about change 450 to 460 and they told me that its impossible or i need make a new order with shipping between end december and January.
The best solution will be try the 450 and return back if i don't love it.

Just checked the OpenGL benchmark. Don't know how this is presentable for things such as Sketch or Photoshop, or any design app. But I'm currently running a nVidia 650m on a 2012 15" MBP and most likely go for the 460 gpu. Going from a score of 13k to 56k, is an increase of 4.3x. Oh damn. Can't
Till the end of december.. ugh T_T. Receiving my 450GPU that I thought would satisfy, but going for the 460 that I ordered last week..

I bit the bullet and cancelled/rebuilt to get the 460. Pushed me out a week, but I think you guys are right, its a pretty big delta between the 450/455 and the 460
The problem is that i need a notebook and my shipping will be between 14-19 dec. Make another order and wait until 28-4 Jan is terrible for me.
Hey Maccotto, could you miss a day without the Macbook? I'd suggest to keep the order, yes, but place a new order (if your bank allows). In case the Macbook will arrive 19 december, you still have 14 days to cancel and return the Macbook. dec 14 + 14 days ~~ 28 dec. Perhaps you can call halfway during your try-out period whether you can extend the tryout period with one or two days, so you can be sure the other 460 Macbook will arrive. Promise you'll return the 'older' one within a day. Besides a hassle with migrating your day from one to another, you most likely will have a notebook at your fingers during this period. Perhaps one or two days without, but that would cover the gap and make you jump with the AMD 460
I'm in that situation a bit too, but my gap is rather larger, though. I'll arrive next wednesday (23 nov.) and my AMD 460 will arrive between 19-28 of december. But i'll see what I can do to cover the missing period, especially with my above scenario. Good luck!
