What are the exact specs on your machine? Did you get the baseline M3 Max chip or did you upgrade to the 40core gpu option? Also, how much ram did you decide on? Thanks
Apple seemes to send out the maxed out M3 Max for people to review, but I really would like to see how the lower M3 Max performs, especially compared to the better M3 Pro version, so see if it's worth upgrading to M3 Max.
Hey! Thanks for responding! Apple sent us the fully decked out MacBook Pro 16-inch. It has an M3 Max chip with a 16-core CPU, 40-core GPU, 128GB of RAM, and 8TB of storage. It's valued at $7,199! You can read my full review that's linked in the video description. Thanks again!
0:00:59 That’s either a fingerprint smudge at the lower left corner or abrasion from your metal watchband. Clarify please? 🤔 Fingerprints aside, just trying to gauge how soon the anodization around the ports starts to chip away as demonstrated in the Midnight Blue MacBook Airs.
Unfortunately Apple every year comes out and promises that they are now "serious" about AAA gaming on the Mac. All we get is 1 or 2 titles and most from years ago. Not holding my breath.
That is not true at all, first time that Apple seriously talked about gaming on a Mac was with the introduction of M2 pro on January this year, which is far from "every year". Computer gaming has never been a focus before, and gamers have never been a target audience for Apple. The first time that it was even possible was with the M1 chips 3 years ago, and even then eg on the M1 pro/max event 2 years ago there was not a single mention on gaming on a mac. Since then we have seen a lot of features like metalFX, now hardware support for raytracing and mesh shading, it is the first time that Apple focuses more towards gaming-oriented features. Surely game developers need time to catch up and bring macs into focus, so I would not expect most AAA titles to be well supported on macs yet, but it has started happening.
