FAQ
Can the 8 GB Mac mini M1 run Divinity: Original Sin 2?
Yes. With 8 GB we estimate 53 FPS at 1080p High.
Can Divinity: Original Sin 2 hit 60 FPS on the Mac mini M1?
Yes: at 1080p Medium it runs around 64 FPS.
What about 1440p and 4K?
On High, the Mac mini M1 gets about 33 FPS at 1440p and about 17 FPS at 4K in Divinity: Original Sin 2. These are native figures.
Do these figures include MetalFX or ray tracing?
No. The headline figure is native resolution, no MetalFX and no ray tracing. Divinity: Original Sin 2 has no MetalFX on Mac. Ray tracing, where a game offers it, costs a lot of FPS on any Mac.
Is Divinity: Original Sin 2 native on Apple Silicon?
Not quite: it has an official macOS version, but built for Intel. On Apple Silicon it runs through Rosetta 2, built into macOS, with nothing else to install. Our figures already include that overhead.
