I have one of the high-end i7 rMBPs with an Nvidia 750M chip inside. In Boot Camp, I get 60fps the vast majority of the time playing Super Mario Galaxy 2 and Metroid Prime Trilogy with mostly default settings — albeit at 1.0-1.5x internal resolution. Can't complain! Love having all the best Wii games on the go, original jaggies and everything.
In native OSX, performance is 1.5-2.0x worse.
- comex 12y agoYeah, this is mainly because Apple's OpenGL drivers are terrible. They're eternally behind the GPU vendor drivers in OpenGL version/feature availability and have worse performance. I'm crossing my fingers that in a few years the clean slate of glNext will give Apple a chance to fix this, but not counting on it...
- archagon 12y agoHilariously, most of my multiplatform games run better through Parallels (pointing to my BootCamp drive) than in OSX native. How that works I have no idea. (Dolphin is demanding enough to require BootCamp for 60fps, though.)
