The latest 15" and 17" MacBook Pros have some very impressive specs, including 2.0/2.2GHz quad-core i7s as well as high-performance AMD graphics. From what I've heard, performance is incredible, but I wanted to know if anyone here got their hands on one and tried out Dolphin on it. Right now I have one with 2.66GHz Core 2 Duo and nVidia graphics, and performance is decent. In OS X I have to use OpenGL, and I can get about 98% speed in relatively lightweight games like Sonic 4. Games like Sonic Colors, especially in areas with embellished lighting like the title screen, I get about 50% speed. If I boot into Windows 7 and use DirectX, I can play lightweight games full speed, and more graphically-intense ones at 80%/90% speed.
From the specs alone it's obvious that Dolphin would run much better on a new one, but I would only consider upgrading my laptop if I could get word that most everything runs full speed within OS X (OpenGL renderer). Thanks in advance =]
