Mac Metal Games 2019

If you’re looking for games that make the most of the Mac’s capabilities, ones that use Metal would make a good start. And one gaming site has put together what it describes as ‘the definitive list of every MacOS Metal game available today’ …

When Apple announced Metal for MacOS it promised a new era in Mac gaming performance.

SuperData Research estimated that the video game industry grew 4% in 2019, reaching US$120.1 billion in global revenues. Superdata stated the market was dominated by mobile games which made up US$64.4 billion, with personal computer games at US$29.6 billion and console games at US$15.4 billion. Apr 06, 2018  A year ago, Apple called five prominent journalists to Cupertino for a meeting in which the company acknowledged problems with the Mac Pro and provided some insight into its pro strategy (see “Maca Culpa: Apple Admits Mac Pro Missteps and Promises More Transparency,” 4 April 2017).Matthew Panzarino of TechCrunch has now returned to Apple to follow up on the company’s progress.

Unfortunately, almost two years passed before we saw the payoff, and aside from hating to wait, it also led to delayed top-tier games while companies had to wait until the API was mature enough to implement.

In the spring of 2017, the wait was finally over and an avalanche of both AAA and excellent independent MacOS Metal games quickly followed.

If the game was installed as a bundle - by dragging the game from a mounted disk image after the game was downloaded, you remove the app in the same way. Drag the app to the Trash and empty the Trash.

The only downside: if a game requires Metal support, it will need a Mac from 2012 onwards, except MacBooks (2015 or later) or Mac Pros (2013 or later).

In addition to listing all the games that currently use the Metal API, MacGamerHQ has also added games with metal support slated as coming soon.

Ten years after ArsTechnica declared Mac gaming dead, developers last year said that there is now cautious optimism about the platform – partly as a result of optimizing for Metal and the launch of Metal 2.

What are the non-Apple GPU options for the 2019 Mac Pro?

January 14th, 2020 by rob-ART morgan, mad scientist
January 16th: upgraded the game graphs to 4K
February 6th: added Pro 580X GPU results

Apple currently offers 3 factory GPU options for the 2019 Mac Pro. There are third party GPUs that are less costly and run just as fast as Apple's Pro Vega II option.


GRAPH LEGEND

Vega II = Apple's Radeon Pro Vega II (32GB HBM2 memory)
VII = AMD Radeon VII (16GB HBM2 memory)
5700 XT = ASUS Radeon RX 5700 XT (8GB GDDR6 memory)
RX 580 = MSI Radeon RX 580 (8GB GDDR5 memory)
Pro 580X = Apple's Radeon Pro 580X (8GB GDDR5 memory)

TEST MULE:2019 Mac Pro 12-core 3.30GHz W-3235 CPU, 96GB of 2933 MHz DDR4 ECC memory, 1TB flash based internal storage (dual 512G modules)

Blender 2.81 - Metal Render of BMW Scene
AMD Radeon ProRender add-on enables Metal rendering in the latest version of Blender. We increased samples from 64 to 512 to make it work harder. (LOWER Time in Seconds = FASTER)

DaVinci Resolve 16 - Looping Noise Reduction
Using the 1080p Candle Project, we applied the '3NR' preset and started a looping playback. We rendered using Metal. (HIGHER Frames per Second = FASTER)

WHAT DID WE LEARN?

The really big news is that the non-Apple supplied GPUs are a fast and affordable alternative to the Apple GPUs like the Pro Vega II. But there are a few downsides. First, they don't provide an Apple Startup or Boot screen. That's not an issue if you are just adding them to the Apple factory GPU in your 2019 Mac Pro.

UPDATE: Catalina 10.15.3 now produces an Apple Startup screen when the Radeon RX 5700 XT or Radeon VII is installed (and no Apple MPX GPU module is present).

Second, they don't sleep well. The Radeon VII's fans go crazy when you put the 2019 Mac Pro to sleep. The Radeon RX 5700 XT will sleep, but the Mac Pro crashes when it wakes up (unless the Apple MPX is removed). Hopefully MacVidCards will come up with a mod to fix this. Until then, when adding non-Apple GPUs, either keep your 2019 Mac Pro awake or shut it down when you are not using it.

Third, though Blender and DaVinci Resolve let you choose the active GPU(s), many apps choose for you -- including games. However, when I connected a Dell 5K display to the DisplayPorts of the VII or RX 5700 XT -- and made it the primary display, the games would use those GPUs. Another way to force third party GPUs to be used is to remove the Apple GPU MPX module -- though be aware that your Thunderbolt 3 display will no longer light up.

We limited this test session to apps that heavily stress the GPU.

The RX 5700 XT surprisingly excelled running Blender 'GPU only' render and DaVinci Resolve Noise Reduction. However, it was not as impressive in our DaVinci Resolve 8K RED transcoding test.
