    M4 Max on a high-end macbook pro is roughly equivalent to an RTX 4060 in terms of performance, but is behind on raytracing. It stutters in intense scenes but can hit 1440p 60FPS with metal upscaling.

      Wasn’t Apple boasting 4090 performance at one point? lol

        Only on very specific tasks. The 4090 and 5090 are great but they are expensive, huge, loud, use a lot of power and release a lot of heat. They are great for gaming and many other tasks.

        The top end Apple M chips are expensive but are very cool, quiet and come in relatively tiny computers. They’re not really for gaming but are adequate. They’re built for prosumers.

          Yeah, like someone please correct me if I’m wrong but the M chips are doing this without a big fat heavyloud separate GFX card—it’s just a lil’ CPU SoC. I’m impressed.
