I’m hoping for big GPU jumps. Apple’s really close to being strong competition for the most popular GPUs on Steam.
They already blow the competition (AMD, nVidia, Qualcomm) out of the water, if you’re looking at performance/power consumption. It can’t realistically get a ‘huge’ bump unless you’re hoping for a dedicated graphics add-in card (lmao)
Huh? Your issue is with the word ‘huge’ over ‘big’? Come on now.
I took your entire comment as mocking/dismissive at first and then reconsidered. That’s why I deleted it shortly after posting. I was in a bad headspace and over reacted.
Looks like your instance didn’t learn of the deletion.
It’s all good brother. I appreciate the honesty, wasn’t trying to be dismissive (in the first comment :)) The lmao was at the thought of Apple doing something cool unforced
I agree, judging by laptop gaming benchmarks Apple seems to be four years behind Nvidia, with the 2024 M4 Max performing about the same as the RTX 3060 Laptop in Cyberpunk 2077. It seems to be on par with the RTX 4060 Laptop (the most popular GPU for Steam atm) on some games, though, so CP77 may just be garbage on ARM architecture. The gap is closing, slowly..
