minus-squareNikls94@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 months agoNope. Worse performance. It’s better to just run the steam exe through whisky, although it’s only good for older games. IMHO the M1 chip with 16 GB RAM would be perfect for gaming if you could just plug in an external thunderbolt graphics card.
