Hi! I've been using a early 2011 Macbook Pro to play Dolphin. My Radeon HD 6750M has played the more intensive Wii games with enhancements just fine. Unfortunately, like so many other early 2011 Macbook Pros, my discrete GPU has died (google "early 2011 macbook pro GPU failure") and I'm left with my Intel HD 3000 and a VERY UNSTABLE system that refuses to boot at times and other times the screen just goes blank.
Unfortunately I liked my macbook too much, I'm a tool, and I'm probably going to get another one. I can't decide if I should get a 13in or a 15in. The problem is that the 13in have an i5 and Iris graphics while the 15in has the i7 and Iris Pro graphics. I understand that an i7 really isn't needed. My hang up is with the Iris and Iris Pro. Are both cards playable with more demanding Wii games? Would I experience much difference between them? Any information or peoples experiences would be greatly appreciated. Has anyone played Dolphin with an Iris?
