Is it ok to play GTA IV on Mac Air? I own 8gb ram, M2 Mac Air and I wanna download a game to play in my spare time. Will it damage my laptop to play GTA IV? Meaning will it affect negatively its battery and performance overall? The game itself is a little bit old (released in 2008) and minimal system requirements are in the screenshot. Thanks for responses in advance.

Gaming on Macbook Pro 2020 Hey there, I’ve recently purchased a new macbook pro because my last one (2014 model) was running slow, though it’s still completely usable. I’m hoping to keep this new for as long as the previous one, but recently started playing League of Legends on it. It runs the game fine but I was wondering if there is any possibility that gaming on the computer and having the fans go off so much will destroy the computer or reduce its lifespan? Thanks!

With that specs, I think your mac can handle CS:GO.

Tried to find the minimum requirements for it and it is as follows:

- OS: MacOS X 10.11 (El Capitan) or later
- Processor: Intel Core Duo Processor (2GHz or better)
- Memory: 2 GB RAM
- Graphics: ATI Radeon HD 2400 or better / NVidia 8600M or better
- Storage: 15 GB available space
