Hey guys, I just recently used Boot Camp to launch Windows 10 on my 2017 MacBook Air and am surprised that I can play some of the most demanding games near perfectly.
For example: I can run Double Dash, Metroid Prime, Pikmin 1 and 2, and Sunshine all at 720p and the original frame rates with Skip EFB access from CPU on. Prime has some frame issues with the map and intense explosions but is basically flawless everywhere else. At native res, they run perfectly with no issues. Wii games work almost as well in this setup. I can play Galaxy 2 at native res with a full 60fps. I use Direct3D 12 as the renderer in all cases. The only game I own that doesn't run full speed is Rogue Leader. It only runs at about 40-45 fps.
Here's my specs: MacBook Air 2017 (Windows 10 x64 Boot Camp)
Intel Core i7-5650IU/2.2 GHz with Turbo Boost up to 3.2 GHz
Intel HD Graphics 6000
8GB LPDDR3 SDRAM
For someone who is not well-versed in how Dolphin works in relation to computer specs, could someone please explain why my computer works so well?
Sorry if this kind of question has been asked before, but I'm new and wanted to understand why it runs how it does.
Thanks!
