FAQ
Can the 16 GB MacBook Air M5 run Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous?
Yes. With 16 GB we estimate 104 FPS at 1080p High.
Can Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous hit 60 FPS on the MacBook Air M5?
Yes: at 1440p High it runs around 66 FPS.
Does the MacBook Air M5 throttle in Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous?
The MacBook Air M5 has no fan. In long sessions it lowers clocks to manage heat, and our figures already account for that sustained loss, around 5% in a game this demanding.
What about 1440p and 4K?
On High, the MacBook Air M5 gets about 66 FPS at 1440p and about 34 FPS at 4K in Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous. 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. Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous has no MetalFX on Mac. Ray tracing, where a game offers it, costs a lot of FPS on any Mac.
Is Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous 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.
