Review Note:

Good, vanilla Crossover 24.0.3 would crash at start or after first cutscene, could only run with CXPatcher and did it without any perceivable graphical glitches and with reasonable performance most of the time, supports controller and k/m. Turned on D3DMetal, MSync. When exiting a fullscreen playthrough, it can stay at black screen, so play with Borderless Fullscreen or CMD+option+ESC to force quit if the game freezes.
Have not tested with latest versions of Crossover.

Review Note:

I capped the FPS at 120 for 1080P and went with it. The M5 Pro can get 120FPS with 1440P, but the entire Mac crashed after some time, so I wouldn't recommend it.

No MetalFX, could probably increase resolution a bit but this is a good balance for performance / image quality. Runs smooth on most M-Series and has HDR.
