Hello, 

I have a question. Is it possible to play with a Mac Book Pro with :

- processor : 2 GHz Intel Core i5 four hearts

- memory : 16 Go 3733 MHz LPDDR4X

- Graphisme : Intel Iris Plus Graphics 1536 Mo

?

Thanks

Hello @egesteve 

It may depend on whether you've kept macOS updated, but if you want to give it a quick try, I would fire up Destiny 2 for free and see how well it works for you on that machine: https://stadia.google.com/games/destiny-2 

Even if Destiny 2 isn't your thing, it should give you an indication if your hardware is capable of playing Stadia games. Do keep in mind the network requirements, though – Stadia requires a steady, reliable network. I would try to connect via Ethernet or a very strong 5GHz WiFi connection just to be sure your test is as accurate as possible.

Why not Zoidberg?

Haha he's right. I've played games on a 2008 MBP and they ran fine. That's what sold me to Stadia originally!

I have to agree with the other replies here. As long as your OS and Chrome/web browser are up to date, you should have no problem running Stadia. The specs you listed sound perfectly capable. I've been able to run Stadia on a potato Chromebook so that MacBook should be plenty powerful.
