  It's insane to me that the fastest Mac chip is almost a fifth faster than the fastest Intel chip for a fraction of the power budget.

    The moment AAA gaming becomes possible on macOS, the floodgates open and windows is dead

    AAA games already exist on Mac, and actually quite a few of them.
    And Windows is not remotely dead yet. Gamers are not selling their PCs and getting Macs.

    Eh, they always get ~5 year old stuff like Control and Cyberpunk
    Not even support for the latest Diablo or Overwatch and absolutely no GTA 6 for example

    That's not what the original comment was asking about. Don't complain about my corrections.
    If someone wants to add qualifiers, they should do that and make it clear.
