Moving to 1440p High puts the MacBook Neo at about 19 FPS. MetalFX renders at a lower resolution and upscales, so it is the cheapest way to play at the display’s native resolution.

Performance with MetalFX

FAQ

Can the 8 GB MacBook Neo run Resident Evil 7 biohazard?

Yes. With 8 GB we estimate 30 FPS at 1080p High.

Can Resident Evil 7 biohazard hit 60 FPS on the MacBook Neo?

Yes: at 1080p Low + MetalFX Balanced it runs around 63 FPS.

Does the MacBook Neo throttle in Resident Evil 7 biohazard?

The MacBook Neo has no fan. In long sessions it lowers clocks to manage heat, and our figures already account for that sustained loss, around 10% in a game this demanding.

What about 1440p and 4K?

On High, the MacBook Neo gets about 19 FPS at 1440p and about 10 FPS at 4K in Resident Evil 7 biohazard. These are native figures: MetalFX raises both noticeably.

Do these figures include MetalFX or ray tracing?

No. The headline figure is native resolution, no MetalFX and no ray tracing. The table below shows MetalFX turned on. Ray tracing, where a game offers it, costs a lot of FPS on any Mac.

Is Resident Evil 7 biohazard native on Apple Silicon?

Yes, it has a native Apple Silicon version, available on Mac App Store. No CrossOver, Parallels or Game Porting Toolkit needed.
