Can the MacBook Pro (14-inch, M4 Pro, 2024) run Sid Meier's Civilization VII?
Minimum requirements
Meets minimum requirements
Probably doesn't meet recommended requirements
The publisher lists GeForce GTX 1050 (tier 3), Radeon RX 460 (tier 3), Arc A380 (tier 3); we compare against the highest-class alternative, so the requirement is tier 3. M4 Pro, 14-core CPU, 20-core GPU — Apple M4 Pro 20-core GPU: PASS. Apple M4 Pro 20-core GPU is tier 5; the requirement is tier 3.
How this was judged
Graphics chips are compared by class (an 8-tier rubric), not by benchmark score. The same tier as the requirement is only ever “likely”. Read the tier rubric and its limitations.
