    Question about Metal 2

    So Metal 2 is supposed to be up to 10x faster than Metal. With games like Starcraft 2 and Hitman that already support Metal will we automatically see a performance boost when we update, or do the developers need to do some additional coding to get the preformance gains of Metal 2? Just curious :)
