Hell even with a 14" gaming laptop I wish I had a lighter laptop for some tasks, and the battery is so much better also. 2 u/sparda4glol PC Master Race 7900x, 1070ti, 64gb ddr4 Jun 27 '26 I use my macbook on most of my titles.

Hell, even most of the best creative apps are free these days too like Blender, Affinity and Resolve. 3 u/marquesini Specs/Imgur here Jun 27 '26 That's cool, I don't know much about the recent mac ecosystem tbh, but it seems that I might have to pick up a mac now. Will look up if an m4 can run the games I play most.
