MacBook Pro m2

I'm planning on getting a new MacBook, and one of the reasons is because I can't run the sims with most/all packs and some mods/cc on my current one. I use my MacBook for school/work and I want to be...

    Then if I was you I would go for the MBP over the MBA 🙂

    I have everything on the highest possible settings because I like my graphics to pop! I posted a screenshot of my settings in another thread over the last week or two, I’ll see if I can find it. The M2 is the next generation so should be even better.

Thank you for replying so quickly and for your help!

Unfortunately, the 14" and 16" Pros are out of my price range ☹️ so I'd have to decide between the MBP and MBA 13".

Also, are you able to run the sims on ultra settings on your MacBook with all of the packs? Or do you have to lower the settings a bit?

    I'm sorry, I do actually just have one other question. What are the main differences between the two? Like what makes the MBP or the MBA the better or worse choice? How would each affect the gaming? I'm sorry haha I just really don't know much about this stuff!

      You’re welcome! The MBP has a fan and isn’t as compact so less heat and better cooling 🙂

        Are the MBA and MBP able to runs the sims 4 on ultra settings with a good amount of CC and mods with most of the packs? I don't want it to slow down my game, frame rates, or compromise my graphics.

        Would I be better off getting an iMac desktop or other, non-Apple computer altogether?

        Thanks!
