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.
