I have both a desktop with a 3080 and M1 Macbook Pro. I run the ARM version of sierra on the Macbook Pro from time to time via parallels but it will never get the same performance as being able to use open GL on my desktop.
Parallels is a full blown VM and will almost certainly perform more poorly than Crossover. Crossover runs Windows/ARM code in native mode, but traps out system calls which are then translated into their Mac equivalents. Very clever, very efficient. As a user, you also avoid the cost of a Windows license. Re: using OpenGL on SC, everytime I use this feature, I wind up with worse performance than without OpenGL. I've tested it with two different GPUs: an Nvdia P4000 and a Radeon Pro WX 3200 |
