  I don't know if it's just me, my hardware, or my OS, but I don't think most things run particularly well through WINE/Proton. For me, even though I'm not on a Mac, I still use Xash to play Half-Life and it works perfectly as far as I can tell. Now, that's not to say that everything runs poorly through WINE, as I do run a few Unreal 1 based games, and Unreal 1 itself, that way and they work perfectly, but Half-Life and a few other games just lag that way. Another instance is to play Doom 3 I use dhewm.

  Sorry, I don’t have one but the benchmarks are going to be that of it 5700 XT, perhaps a percentage point or two lower based on what I’ve seen. The w5700x has quieter cooling and doesn’t come either the factory overclocks like many the 5700 xt frequently did. The 6600 xt is about 10% faster than the 5700 XT and by extension the w5700x.

  It kind of sounds like your biggest issue with this machine is its nomenclature. If you think of it as a Mac Studio, which is basically what it is, then maybe your position might change. Unlike a Mac Studio though you can upgrade the CPU, Ram, GPU, and internal storage. Here we are ten plus years later, and we have lost all of those vital features. You basically set up the machine to its worst possible state for your use case. Yes you should have employed a better internal storage. But you also had the 12 core CPU which has the slowest single core speed, and you were using the weakest GPU to do the most intensive GPU tasks. Had you used this computer say as an audio work station it is likely you would have been very pleased with its performance. If you need to drive a 4K display from one of these machines then an external expansion chassis is one way to get there. The 2013 has a lot of connectivity available (also known as expansion ability), and your cable mess is made more unsightly because of USER ERROR. That is the back of the computer, not the front! Turn it around and drape your cables behind your desk. The 2013 is a beautiful design, more like Darth Vader's helmet than that other term lazy people have employed. It is unfortunate that third part video cards never came out for it, as this would likely have increased the machines viability. Had this machine sported ARM processors people would still be singing praises. Sadly it was strapped with Intel, and that limited its possibilities.

  My biggest issue is it was an overpriced machine that didn't feature PCIe slots. I think my value set is likely different than people who love this machine. As the author of the Definitive Mac Pro Upgrade guide series, it shouldn't be a shocker I had a strong bias against this computer for it's inferiority compared to the ol' cheesegrater. They missed the mark with this design, as the Mac Pro should have been the most boring computer Apple made, just toss some Xeons in a box with PCIe slots and call it a day. Looks are arbitrary when you're trying to get work done. I'd buy a Mac Pro with a scruffed beige 1990s HP case if delivered a fully modular design again. Does this make me correct? Not really but I have a very _strong_ suspicion I represented the wants and desires of the average Mac Pro buyer. As far as audio goes, I recorded two albums with a Mac Pro 2008, and the Mac Pro 2013 under load was as loud if not louder than my Mac Pro 2008. It certainly has more CPU horsepower than my 2008 but lacked the storage options. Fortunately, I'm not a protools guy, thus a Mac Pro 2013 would have done a fine job, but I'd been forced to use external media. The 12-Core is the faster CPU overall you're trading 28% clockspeed for a 3x the core count. The Turboboost on the base 4-core is only 3.9 Ghz, a 5% uplift vs the nearly 25% uplift for the 12-Core. For the work I was trying to do it, it's still the best option as the performance scales a lot better than say, the Mac Pro 2019 where you get only about 30-40% speed increase from from the 16-Core to 28-Core in multicore vs the Mac Pro 2013 going roughly 225% from 4 to 16 Core. As far as the GPU, the D700s only offer roughly a 35% speed bump. As much as I'd liked to experience the D700s, realistically it wouldn't have drastically improved my opinion. It's a beautiful computer but unworthy of the pro name. I did make a follow up video where I compared it to a Mac Mini M1 as they're roughly the same price. kzread.info/dash/bejne/ea6VmcebpbeddKQ.html

  @@dmug The philosophy of this machine is different, and you really have to view it that way. You can't expect a dog to be a cat, or a cat to be a dog, and if you do well you are just going to disappoint yourself, and that is why you are so disappointed. This is not a machine with slots. It is much more like the original Macs, before the Mac II. If you look at it this way it has massive expansion. If you think back to Apple II days people said that the 8-bit Ataris didn't have expansion, but that was incorrect, they had their daisy chainable serial port. It is a different philosophy, neither is wrong, they are just different. The 2013 has a massive amount of ports on the back, so to say it doesn't have expansion is really false. You can say it doesn't have slots, but it has lots of expansion. For audio a lot of people have used external drives. Many even prefer to work this way. A client can come into your studio, bring their drive. Work, and then take their drive when they go. This isn't a negative unless you want it to be so. The 12 core is only faster if the software supports it, and that's not always, or even often the case with Intel machines. Yes it will be faster in benchmarks, but often the 4 core machine could beat the 12 core in a healthy number of daily efforts. The ARM Macs are fantastic. It shows us where the PPC could have gone if IBM and Moto didn't give up on it. And I wouldn't really suggest someone get an Intel Mac these days unless they had a reason, like say they wanted to run GDB. Although you could instal Lima on your ARM Mac, and SSH into GDB functionality that way too. But I can imagine some folks wanting to run some Intel apps, and for them an Intel Mac, and the 2013 would be a very nice machine. But it is really difficult to compete with the ARM Macs. And if you think about it there really isn't an ARM Mac available where you can use slots. Yeah they made one, but can you put anything that you really want into one of those slots? No GPUs, and what else could go in there that would be important today? An Intel card so that you could run CP/M? :P

  I am planning on getting a MacBook hopefully in the near future. I’m glad I found this video! I am happy to know I can have the option to play at least some of my Windows-only games on Mac. (Checked the list, none of the games I own are compatible, but still good to know I have a few more options). One question, though: say I were to have both the Mac version of Steam for playing the majority of my games, and the Windows version for playing Windows games, would they conflict with each other in any way?

• 
  @dmug3 күн бұрын

  Only if you try to run them together at the same time as Steam only lets you play one game at a time. GPTK2 will be released with macOS 15 Sequoia which will further expand compatibility. The best option though isn't Whisky, rather Crossover which uses WINE + GPTK (and will use GPTK2) for a much wider range of compatibility. Many online games will not work because of anti-cheat software.

  Hi. Great video. I thought i would comment on using Wineskins or Whisky to run game installers instead of virtualmachines or real hardware. I’ve install fallout 3 and borderlands off original disc using Wineskins or Whisky with no issue. I did have to run some software to remove the anti-piracy software on borderlands to get it to run first on my White MacBook 2009, then moved it to my M1 MacBook Pro. I have solved some of the audio issues, just need to solve a graphical issue, which is only on my M1 laptop. Fallout 3 installed but did not boot. I might try the old MacBook first then work upwards. It’s a shame unlike wineskins that can be shared, Whisky bottles can’t be. Unless I am missing something? The shared wineskins made it easy to play games, as someone else have solved the issues ( Graphic / Audio ), all you needed to do was provide the game.
