Hardware: I have found couple of settings within the Hardware tab to be the key for good graphics, especially when you are navigating 3D models. First is the CPU & Memory numbers. I have 16 GB of RAM on my machine and I have noticed the best performance when I dedicate 9-11GB for the virtual machine to go with 2 CPUs.

- Even though Parallels Desktop can swap some amount of the virtual machine's memory to the disk thus making the total amount of memory available for the virtual machine even bigger than the total size of the physical RAM installed on the Mac, the amount of the virtual machine's memory that cannot be swapped to the disk will always be not less.
- Especially since one of your reviews implied 8GB of ram on M1 was similar to 16GB ram on Intel Mac. You should post this on the Parallels support forum.
- Here in the Chrome OS Settings, you can see hooks to printers, USB devices, and shared folders for the VM to access. You can, for example, right-click on a folder in the Chrome OS Files app to share it with Parallels Desktop. You’ll also see the default user folders from Windows in the Files app, to get at those from Chrome OS.
- Tested with a pre-released version of Parallels Desktop 16.5 on MacBook Air 10,1 with Apple M1 chip and 16GB RAM versus MacBook Air 8,2 with Intel Core i5-8210Y and 8GB RAM. The performance will vary based on usage, system configuration and other factors.
Parallels on Tuesday released a second Technical Preview of its virtualization software for M1-equipped Macs.

The updated Technical Preview introduces new features and improvements, including support for suspending and resuming a virtual machine, support for installing Parallels Tools in several Linux distributions, and automatic detection of compatible Linux installation images.
Additionally, the update improves the overall stability of Parallels on Apple Silicon and patches a few known issues with the previous version.
Like the first Technical Preview, there are still limitations here. Users can only install ARM-based operating systems and ARM32 applications aren't supported.
Parallels will be able to run the ARM version of Windows that's available through Microsoft's Windows Insider program. Currently, however, there's no publicly available version of Windows for ARM.
If you own an M1 Mac, you can request access to the Technical Preview here.
