So roughly the price of a gaming system that can run games better than your current gaming systems and plug and play with both Windows and Macs. There are different packages that you can get for between 400 and 500. Nvidia sadly isn’t, but there are work around a if you are really determined. Nearly all post 2010 ADP cards are supported. Here is a guide from Everymac detailing eGPUs. There are two main components: 1) The External PCI Box (200 - 500) and 2) the GPU card (150 - 1500+ depending on the market and card).

That is a very welcome addition, so you don't even need an external monitor now. Head over to for the most recent information on supported graphics cards for macOS Mojave.ĮDIT: I just read that Apple added eGPU acceleration for the internal screen in Mojave. I play with external graphics sometimes and my MacBook doesn't even need to run the fans because the card does everything and the performance is much better. It also truly works wonders for the heat issue, the graphics card takes a lot of the load off your MacBook. You fortunately have Thunderbolt 3 so it even works natively. If you have an external monitor and willing to spend some money for gaming on the Mac, get an external graphics card. Old games, 2D games or games with simple graphics styles should work.

That means its gaming capabilities are limited. Your 13' MacBook unfortunately only has Intel integrated graphics. Yes, you don't want to game with it sitting on your lap and you should put it on a table so the air slits aren't blocked. If you just mean that it heats up and the fans are running loudly, don't worry about it. If you are actually experiencing over-heating issues (sudden, severe throttling or even shut-downs), you might have a problem with your hardware. I’m wondering if I save up for something like that what could I expect to run natively on it? Obviously not at 5K resolution lmao but at least at mid to high respectable settings that don’t look cruddy? I don't have the exact specs on me at the moment though, sorry!ĮDIT: My mom has a 5K 27” iMac (2017 model) that she got for work purposes but I have dabbled some light gaming on it. My MacBook Pro is a Late-2016 model specifically with TouchBar. I know people say gaming on Macs is thoroughly impossible but I admit, I love Macs and I'm so used to the OS and how simple it is to use.

Other than trying to use Bootcamp to make a Windows partition (which I'm super noob/nervous about doing), is there any way to make games run so they won't overheat my poor laptop? Just about anything I try to run makes it heat up a lot.

I also tried FFXIV but the results for the Mac client were absolute garbage with a capital G so that one is sticking to my PS4 for the time being. I've tried games here and there on it, mostly small indie stuff like Binding of Isaac, Don't Starve, etc as well as a couple of Blizzard titles like Heroes of the Storm and WoW. So I just found out this sub was a thing (thank you random Google search!) and I wanted to get an idea of what I can do with my MacBook Pro.
