Believe it or not, after the switch to M1, there has never been a better time to game on Mac. With powerful CPUs and GPUs these new MacBooks and iMacs can game better than pretty much any computer Apple has produced in the past decade. These new devices would make for excellent gaming machines… if it wasn’t for Apple’s crappy behavior preventing it from happening.

I see nothing except a pc 😭
Wtf is gamming in mac
Even if I put boot camp and run windows, these machines CANNN very much run demanding games. But if I play a similarly demanding game on the Mac side, it doesn’t play as nice.
Right, a total gaming laptop that can't play any games unless they are Apple compatible, which is none. 🤣
❣️
Ok so not a gaming device. Seems like a waste. I wanted to try one of these out.
Indie games? Games like League of Legends run fine even on crappy macs.
Stadia……
clickbait linus
Does anyone know what software they are using at 3:21 showing power usage?
Intel didn’t stop boot camp working on Mac Pro 5,1. It’s was apple
Boot camp is still king. I can run any game, I never had problem playing Mac game on Mac OS Mojave
That thumbnail tho
Don’t get it twisted guys the only reason why apple wants control is because of security reapsns. Windows and Microsoft products are notoriously known for hacks and lags etc. the ONLY products that can compete with apple is Xbox series x or any of their consoles BecUse those consoles are “controller” meaning they don’t allow random web searches to prevent viruses etc.
Apples security is much greater than Microsoft aka making them better for input lag, lag, hacks etc. and yes great for gaming it’s much better overall than Microsoft BUT much more expensvie
Apple is very anti-free market.
The market share means nothing. That 15% share would rocket up (possibly even dominate) if Apple unclenched. But Apple was always about work and not play. Plus this is also about the elites and elitism who mostly look waaaay down on gaming. Work, Digital production and students is everything for them. With maybe a side of small simple games like word games and such.
Let's take a moment to appreciate how much time and effort he puts into his content for us. Love the videos!
1:34 I come home after school and check your channel every day. I love you bro
bill gates and steve balmer were way worse
What application are you using to see the temp at 1:24
Can it stream and record said games at the same time though is the question?
He looks soo high rn
Wow, that M1 air is really a game changer
Sticking with my RTX 2070 super
The problem is the only reason we don't have a Mac is that they can't handle the really good games. I really like the security of Mac and hate Microsoft, but I stay with Microsoft for the gaming and flight sim. the plus for Mac is they would sell many more computers especially laptops. Apple laptops cost is almost the same as PC laptops now. So If you are below 40 you would buy a Mac first it they could run the most popular games. I think this would at least double Mac sales.
when some random man starts promoting trash games like these at 6:00 and forward is just fucking sad.
Pretty sure Gamejolt and Steam have decent games that support Windows, Linux/Deck, and MacOS.

NO
We’re getting 12,000 fps in cool math games for sure
apple would kill gaming if they ever got into it
Just curious…is this dude neutral or a Mac employee making utube “commercials”??
Funny thing about war thunder sponsorship
It’s been broke sense this video came out for Mac, with graphic errors and crash’s the game because gajin doesn’t communicate that they are even working on fixing a 7 month long issue of not being able to play
I would probably switch to Apple laptops if the actually did anything to support gaming.
Hello!
I need help hopefully you can respond because I see you are a mac gamer!
I recently got a Mac and I need a shooter game to play that has no blood or gore and is fairly realistic or anything that is overall just like gta with. The strip clubs and stuff I can’t have any of that stuff thanks!
The subset argument works for windows too, I bet more than half are gaming decent and half than that are not office dumb machines
No sir , I will build windows pc for gaming .
Buying Apple for pc gaming is the last thing I do .
But Apple phones are better in mobile games .
What is that game shown at 4:42 ?
On Macs A Renice Value Of -20 Can Be Used On All Apps To Speed them Up + You Can Turn Off Siri In System Preferences to Get Better Performance ( You Can Use The Voice Search On The Bing Site In The Browser ) ( Better Renice Values ) ( Disable Process Throttling on Battery And Power Adapter If Possible For Raw Performance ) ( Leave Enabled For Better Mutitasking )

( Use Scaled Setting Above Lowest Resolution ) ( If Your At 100% Cpu Usage, Unless Your Benchmarking You Can Still Run Apps With No Problem. It May Slow Down a Bit When Your Running Out Of Memory. by that time you would be using your ssd/hd as system Memory. ) ( Same Applies To Gpu But the Vram Would go to Dram First Then To SSD/HD )

If Your Mac Has A Fan, Use The app Mac's Fan Control and Set The Fan To Full Blast To Avoid System Slow Down or to a Custom Value ( Going over 85-95 % Fan Speed Might cause system slowdown ) Get The Flotato App To Use Mobile SItes On Your Mac etc. set value to -20 Adjusting App Window Size Instead Of Going Full screen Can Give a Performance Increase.
For Games & Videos, FullScreen Might Work Better. Check Out App Cleaner Or Ccleaner.
Renice Values for apps your not using and Background System Apps set value to 20.
