Can I play the games on my iMac?

[luxcit]

I'm having an iMac (2017), Catalina 10.15.7, 3.8Ghz Quad Core Intel Core i5, Radeon Pro 580, 8Gb.
I'm not sure if my processor and graphic card is enough for the minimum level to play:
Desperados III
Mafia III
Wasteland III
Empire of Sin
Does anyone know, or could recommend a way to be sure.

Have you compared the specs of your iMac to the minimum and recommended specs on the store pages for those games? Do they compare favorably for you? That is why those sections are on the pages...

Thx for your answer. I have compared, but I'm not sure if my radeon is good enough. I have "Radeon Pro 580, 8Gb" and Desperados III need minimum" Radeon HD 5850, 2Gb". So is pro better or worse than hd? Is the higher number (5850 vs 580) better than the lower one? The same goes for the other games.
It's the same for the processor. Mine is "3.8Ghz Quad Core Intel Core i5", and "Empire of Sin" is "Intel Core i5-4690". It would simplify if they compared the same way. I found a site for PC where you could just enter the name of the game and version, and get a quick answer if you could run the game or not, but I haven't found any similar way for Mac.

Yeah, AMD kind of screwed some folks up with the change to the naming convention. Considering your 580 has 8 GB of VRAM, I presume it's newer than the 5850.

A quick Google search of AMD Radeon 5850 shows reviews from 12 years ago. Same for the 580 shows reviews from only 2 years ago.

As for the CPU - if you search Intel Core i5 4690 you'll find the clock speeds to compare...

Thx for helping out ^4Hallux(TSDP). You made it a little easier:). I don't think it is reasonable that you have to sit and google graphic cards, clock speeds or different terms to be able to play a game, but that is neither yours nor my "fault". Anyway, I'm a little closer an answer now, thanks to you.
