I Ran Windows Games on the MacBook Neo! It Actually Works

The MacBook Neo was never meant to be a gaming laptop, but thanks to native Apple Silicon ports and Windows translation layers like Crossover (utilizing WINE and D3DMetal), this entry-level Mac punches way above its weight.
In this video, we test native Mac games like No Man’s Sky and the new Crimson Desert (testing Apple's Metal Frame Generation!), before pushing the A18 Pro chip to its limits with heavy PC titles like Grand Theft Auto V, Skyrim, and Red Dead Redemption 2. I’ll show you what kind of FPS you can expect, how my thermoelectric cooling mod stops thermal throttling, and whether this budget Mac is actually worth buying for gaming.
