And this was Sims 3, so the 4 will be worse both in resolution/framerate and temps. My GF tried to play Sims 3 on her 2015 13” rMBP and, well, it ran even at adequate resolution and framerate but the laptop got REALLY hot (and by that I mean at least 60-70C (on the surface, I don’t even want to think about the CPU temps.), so really hard to even touch), especially in the single vent area and the screen over that (at which the vent blows the hot air).

The only CPU detail we know about the MacBook Air is that it uses an “8th gen Core i5 dual-core.” That doesn’t say much, but Apple’s website says the graphics are Intel UHD 617, which doesn’t officially exist yet in Intel’s database.
