I find this a weird place to start gaming. For someone who has so much money to spend on a non-upgradable 8GBRAM device there’s way better options. Even a Steam Deck (especially the OLED version) would be better tbh, but with so much money wasted on a laughable 8GBRAM mac, one can build a hell of a gaming PC…

Some people care about gaming and doing work / homework. Steam Deck is not a great option for them.

If money’s no object, obviously a steam deck for portable gaming, an M3 Max for productivity / engineering, and a gaming PC with 4090 is the way to go.

I'd argue that the steamdeck as a second device is the perfect option for those wanting to game and do work.

You don't need to buy a new M3 mac in order to play games... especially when there are no (conventional style) games on that platform!

Just spend a little less on feeding the apple beast and get a device designed for the purpose.
