steam kills my computer
Pretty sure that the MacBook Pro with an i9 in it was the definition of “don’t game on me or I’ll melt”. They are known to thermal throttle even under light loads, since Apple decided to saddle that power hungry monster of a cpu with a tiny-ass cooling solution that could barely keep an celeron unde

Apple M5 Pro & M5 Max GPU Analysis - M5 Max GPU on par with the GeForce RTX 5070 and faster than Strix Halo
I was making the point that it is a little unfair to compare a $6k MacBook Pro to a sub $3k device. strix halo $ for $ outperforms it. The Strix Halo at $3k will outperform the same $3k MacBook which will likely put you at a 15c/16g M5 Pro with only 48gb of ram. Even if you consider resale you're be

MacBook Pro - M5 Pro or Max?
The MAX is a waste in any "MacBook" at this point in over 5 years of working with Apple Silicon setups in my own personal experience. This is my opinion and others are welcome to disagree, but it's my opinion at this point. It really only makes sense performance/price ratio, when a Mac Studio. Even

What’s the easiest / cheapest way to play an F1 game?
It’s an Apple M1 chip - can I ask why intel would make a difference? It’s a MacBook Pro but it’s struggled with games before. Tried one called Inside and it got so hot I had to stop

Laptop being insanely slow out of nowhere can anyone tell me why? Heres the task manager
I have the same issue on my M5 MacBook Pro. Apple has made the fan wait until you’re at a very high temp to turn on. I guess to make it “quieter”. It’s annoying though because the fan is all or nothing.

My boy Travis still using a 2016 - 2018 MacBook Pro 😭
That is a problem with older Macs. (See Louis Ross on Youtube about this. He's a computer repairer in New York.) I've had a lot of trouble with Macs running hot. Apple just shrugs this off. They have preferred that fan/s will be less active than they should be in order to be more quiet. There are ap

Should i get a macbook neo or loq 15 for both gaming and school work?
No 😂 Under load the Macbook will get depleted just as fast as a Windows laptop. https://www.notebookcheck.net/M5-Max-with-inconsistent-performance-and-throttling-issues-Apple-MacBook-Pro-14-Review.1246064.0.html Here you can see that the M5 Max can get depleted in around 1 hour under full load. You

Mac Pro 2018 vs Mac air 2026
The 2019 MacBook Pro may be the worst laptop Apple has ever produced to be fair. The thing is just a heater than can sometimes open Safari.
