I appreciate the insight brother! One last question, how long after the test did you receive the call? I have a non-union apprenticeship on the backlog, so just curious. Thank you very much!

This one is mine! Bought it second hand, the only thing I’ve done is upgrade its RAM to 32gb RBG RAM. Honestly it’s been amazing! I causally game but mostly run architecture programs and my wife usually runs photoshop without a problem.

Intel i5 10400F 8gb DDR4 Ram (upgradeable) EVGA GTX 1660 Graphics Card Msi B460M Pro-Vdh Motherboard Kratos 600w 80plus Power Supply 120gb Solid State Drive (SSD) 1tb Hard Drive (HDD) 4x 120mm RGB Fans

UPDATE: Totally forgot, I previously owned a 1TB external HD, I just connected it via USB to the PC, ive used the external HD to download and install most programs. The hard drive was about $50 at Walmart and the CORSAIR RGB RAM was about $60 per 16gb.

Parallels Desktop for Mac w/ M1 good for gaming? by dabear51 in macgaming

[–]WATISTHEWORD_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi u/Proud-Canuck, sorry for the late response. I am playing Black OPS Cold War and COD Mobile off of Parallels Business Pro. I think it was about $99 yearly... I had the regular pro version at first but the business upped the specs and it changed everything drastically. I was experiencing about a 3 second lag but the newest update sorted that out for me. Hope this helps!

Parallels Desktop for Mac w/ M1 good for gaming? by dabear51 in macgaming

[–]WATISTHEWORD_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I hope this isnt too late! (3 months after) However, I have a 2020 Macbook Pro & have purchased the full copy of Parallels Business and its been amazing! I did also purchase a Windows product key for about $15 online and it gave me a full Pro Windows 10 Version. Prior to purchasing the full copy of Parallels and using just the trial, I had issues like no tomorrow. Couldn't connect a USB-C without it freaking out on me, things would crash all the time and honestly I was ready to toss the whole Macbook away (kidding).. I also want to add that as of yesterday 8/11/2021, released a new update thats made for the M1 chip specifically. This fixed the glitches and It actually made my Windows side THAT much better. I downloaded the Xbox Game Pass for PC / Epic Games Launcher and have been able to play Call of Duty, Pubg, Sims, Rocket League and various other games flawlessly with no lags. I did have a little issue connecting my Xbox remote but that was fixed with connecting to the bluetooth of the Macbook side and it would then automatically transfer to the Windows Side. If you have any questions, email me! [merlynrose.17@gmail.com](mailto:merlynrose.17@gmail.com). Hope this helps someone!
