Dropping my M2 Air 16GB settings in case it's useful:
- All graphic settings at LOW (except textures I have at Ultra w/ anisotropic x16)
- FSR1 activated at Performance (this is a MUST)
- U3421WE Ultrawide native res is 3440x1440, I run at 2752x1152
- Anti-aliasing I have off because I don't like this blurry stuff
- Everything else is off
- Gives stable 40 FPS, sure graphics are not great, but it's very much playable
I have the same hardware and play everything at ultra at 2000something x 1440 resolution. I did not measure FPS, but it does not stutter and videos are sharp. This is on the internal display. I have to see how it performs on my 4K display. Any good method to measure FPS?
Yeah just open terminal and type
/bin/launchctl setenv MTL\_HUD\_ENABLED 1I'm curious how you can run it at ultra. Maybe my 3440 ultrawide makes such a big difference?
2000somethingx1600 is on the internal Display of that MacBook Air and it might be that my expectations to graphics FPS wise are not very high. Normally I play Civilisation or Kerbal Space Program and one of my most loved games is Master of Orion 1 on a whooping 640x480 pixels. I’ll check later, what FPS I get.
Ok. KSP and its 5 SPF gameplay did lower my expectations to modern games, apparently. Looks like I run BG3 around 15 to 25 FPS 🙃 . This is on the internal display. I didn't test the external one.
Running on an iMac M1. Thanks for the tip about FSR1.
At similar settings except
- Resolution 1680 x 945
- Textures on High, not Ultra
I get around 35fps playable enough
