So yeah, the M1 has been an amazing chip in my experience (including for games). That includes the (few) games I play: Total War Troy for example was unplayable on the 2017 MBP but runs pretty well (at least for my standards) on the M1 (about 25 FPS with pretty high settings). I too had a 2017 MBP before I got my 2020 M1 MBP and it destroys the old machine in every task I use it for (running intensive python scripts, music production in Logic, training ML models). Very surprised to hear that your statistics program is that much slower on the M1. So far, I thought it would be similar for gaming. Hence, upgrading would be suicide (at work) until the programs run natively (if they ever do) or the rosetta ports run more smoothly. I haven’t run gaming benchmarks, but when I did so with calculating complex statistical models, the iMac took around 5 times as long as the MacBook. ![]() All the games I tried (mostly paradox stuff) run much (much!) better on my 2017 MacBook Pro compared to the 2021 iMac that should be faster/better in any regard. Wait, M1s are actually good for gaming? Seriously? I may have had bad luck then with my experience.
