should you buy a MacBook for gaming?
Whoever guesses the number in my head (between 1-100) gets a ❤ lol
i was gonna say 69 but i think its 74 your not that predictable i hopw
Hii
I guess not-
67
69
Your first mistake is buying a MacBook between 2016-2019 (crappy port selection, Touch Bar in the place of function keys, butterfly keyboard)
I know, right? He could at LEAST get the M1 MacBook!
Cuz for that price you can't get anything better? It's a 400€ laptop..., an M1 macbook air is 850€ used all scuffed and shit, a windows machine for that price in a similar condition has an rtx 3060, 16GB of ram instead of 8... and even 512GB of storage, compared with the 256 I found on the macbook... It would still lose, why do you want him to compare his 450€ laptop with a macbook that's worth 2 times as much? Oh I know, cuz it's apple, so it has to cost more...
Yea that Butterfly keyboard and the crappy intel processors are the notorious features of 2016-2019 macs and im so lucky cause before i didnt know what mac is should get so somehow i played russian roulette with macs and ended up with the M1 MBA which become a very good decision.
this is soooo true
@@aquss33 You really don’t know anything, do you?
Comparing a 2022 windows laptop to a 2019 MacBook,
Yes this is content nowadays 😂
fr, why tf he bought intel macbook. M1 macbook air would perform better than that. He’s too biased
he wanted to get a macbook at the same price of his windows laptop and because of that he needed to buy an older one
… That windows laptop cost more then $400 and the Old Macbook still cranks like crazy
In the same way, a Windows laptop is better for gaming than any Macbook.
Windows was better in 2019😂
Discord moderators room 💀
as a permanent macbook gamer (minecraft java), i love the macbook performace. especially because minecraft is mainly cpu-dependent i get 500+ fps on lunar client 1.8.9 and 700+ fps on badlion client 1.8.9 launched with optifine (2 years old laptop and it rocks)!!!
m1 2020 model
bruh, 2 year old laptop, my 14 year old AMD Phenom II X6 1055T with 8GB of DDR3 and a 2014 budget GPU, the GTX 950 2GB ran 1.8.9 with just optifine at over 1300 fps, I have no idea what you're talking about... also, my 150€ new laptop from 2021, a chuwi laptop with 12GB of RAM and a celeron j4125 runs 1.8.9 with sodium at well over 90 fps, your mac was likely close to 1200€ at least... so it really isn't impressive if you ask me
tip: on new versions the canvas renderer is significantly better than sodium on m-series macs
@@aquss33Mf on his crappy laptop has more fps than i have on a 4080 XD
@@dkoorse You're probably playing vanilla with high settings / shaders, what we're talking about is 1.8.9 (2014 version of minecraft) with a much improved engine that thing'll run well on just about anything from a dual core athlon from 2008 with no gpu to a 2010 high end six-core. Running it at 500 fps on a very very expensive mac isn't very surprising, it's pretty disappointing actually. I believe I could play on servers at around 120-180 fps with all of that on a frickin' i3 310M laptop with GT310M 512MB GPU, the laptop was also running win10 off an hdd back in 2015 and it also had 4GB of ram so the game really is about as easy to run as can be...
you cant compare a 300 pund laptop from 5 years ago to a expensive laptop from around 2023 id presume
EDIT: i have a mac for around the price of that windows laptop i get 2k fps with badlion
gtx 1650 is not a good gpu
@@Ayrin69 It would be like 10x more powerful then the GPU in the mac tho. IGPU vs GPU is not fair with x86 processors... but with ARM CPU's it is fair game.
Even second hand you get better value buying pretty much any other brand
@Ayrin69 1650 is 6 year old mid range not good for gaming
obviously not, unless you want 1080p low settings gaming
Ye, take an old mac and then compare it, seems super fair !!

You know dang well the newest apple laptop can’t play games smoothly like windows
@@subifyouwant6226oh yes they can, all my vids are recorded with my school mac
@@subifyouwant6226 actually yes it can in this instance minecraft will run around 900 to 1k fps ive done the testing myself this video is a biast comparison
@@subifyouwant6226 i have a m3 2023 base mac and it runs mc at 750fps
Why is this old SECOND HAND MacBook better than my current laptop? But considering that my laptop is 7 years old (I use this to play MC), its expected.
my 2012 i7 16gb original retina macbook pro plays minecraft just fine at 60 fps.
I GOT ONE FROM 2015
Should've got an m-series one... Not an intel core one.
not that big of a difference
@@zeenxdownz big difference. ARM macs doesn't even use their fan 99.9% of the time, and runs so much better.
@@zeenxdownzDon't just judge anything fast! The M3 Macs can run Steam Games really good and not just steam, any game too
@zeenxdownz a massive difference, don’t talk until you have proper knowledge
True. Would have if I wasn’t spending $1500 on an upcoming video lol
MacBook is just not for the gaming community and its really just a good work laptop that can last you 8-9 years (and not lag!)
@@jolt1239 I mean you can get a 2015 MacBook for like 100ish dollars and it will last you 5-6 years and you really can’t find something that can beat MacBooks in the price range
@@jolt1239 yes. no one said they couldn't
Macs have plenty of advantages that set them apart for *certain* people, let's remember PC stands for *personal* computer, just because X is better for you that doesn't mean it's going to be better for everyone
@@liamsz Yeah, I never said Windows isn't downright better than Mac for everyone, I was just saying that a good Windows laptop can serve you well for multiple purposes.

Bruh lol
whenever i see a mac book it looks so smooth and nice but so complicated. amazing dude
As a windows fanboy, something most people don't get is that windows laptops mainly focus on performance, bulkiness and customizability or I guess freedom. (At this point I'm talking about Linux windows isnt that free) whereas Macbooks focus on **work** Mainly professional work and another major thing is the life of the actual laptop. Everyone knows that macbooks last decades while windows laptops can sometimes last like 2 years if not taken care of properly. My aunt plans to buy a $2000 macbook and upon asking her why she immediately said that rather than buying a laptop every 5-8 years it's much better to buy one that last like 15 years. Mac is still capable of playing light games (minecraft and others) at 60+ fps and if you want to do heavy gaming and buying a mac, then you don't deserve the heavy gaming or the mac. And other then that I mean mac is a complete different os built for work so yeah.
Macs aren't really more durable.
I see students buying new macs every year
@@user-dh7sm9zh9eThey’re more durable than windows though
Apple products arent durable lmao, also extremely hard to fix them
I don't think anybody uses a Laptop for 15 years. Not only the battery will die in the next 5 years but the Software will also be outdated at a point where it doesn't make sense to use it anymore.
When your windows laptop dies, you replace the dead part. When your mac dies, you are forced to get a new one. My 2017 iMac could run macOS sonoma no problem. But apple decides that you can't. What most people do then is assume that their hardware is old, and have to spend another $2000 on a new mac. But windows also has problems. On windows, the idle resource usage is crazy. It's got the NT kernel, which isn't an issue for most people, but definitely an issue for me. It's much easier to brick. So I use arch linux :).
i play minecraft on my m1 macbook.... it doesnt heat even a little. the test was kinda unfair ngl
Bro u compared a workspace laptop using 5 year old tech to a 2022 mid-range gaming laptop... not completely fair 🤣 Tbh tho, the M series chips, (which mind you were put into affect in 2021) are very effective at gaming. An M1 can run MC at 700 fps, at like 4k res or smthing . You can pick one of those up for 700$... so not even that bad.
fr no cap
I remember when you had like 30K subs congrats on 325K
Being an old MacBook player myself, I can give out a few more details.
First of all, the problem with the macbook is the overheating. I remember my hand getting burned regularly after about 20 minutes of playing, and at one point, after letting my computer run for a whole entire night just to ask in a creeper farm, some weird juice came out of the computer while i was sleeping, as if something was melting from the inside.
The second problem is the fact that it’s old. My macbook was almost as old as yours, BUT mine definitely has more playtime. I remember, when i started playing minecraft, i would get around 150 fps, and at the end of using this macbook i was getting maximum 30. So my macbook’s performance was gradually becoming worse, and SO MUCH FASTER than other windows laptops.
And lastly, the fact that on a macbook you CANNOT run ANYTHING except your game.
My macbook would crash entirely just because i had Minecraft and Discord opened, and don’t get me started on playing while watching a youtube video.
For example, listening to music while gaming would make my computer stutter SO MUCH, it seems it was about to fly off.
Anyways, good video. (don’t buy a macbook)
You didn't limit your frame rate to something like 70 fps. My M2 macbook air can do discord while youtube only if you cap the FPS at 70, because without that, the FPS goes to like 200 with definitely heats it up.
Hello!
I'am a mac gamer aswell i play CSGO and Minecraft but i have not seen my mac melting and burning.
and yours is from 2019 if im correct and mine is from 2015 but i think its because of the versions and blah blah and if the fan is making alot of noise... (which i had a problem with aswell) it might mean you havent cleaned the fans and if your macbook just crashs because of 2 apps it means there is something on the inside that is the problem and you wont notice on the outside.
Anyways hoped this helped

The screen is sh*t on your windows laptop cuz it's a gaming laptop. It's optimised for low latency, high fps. That means it's better to use a TN-Panel, which has crap viewing angles.
This videos just keep getting better
Now test it with the power supply unplugged
even that mac in the vid is plugged
lol if you unplug the laptop he had windows will win unplugged too

I use a MacBook as well, except it’s not for gaming, more for testing out editing apps, but the frame rate is a little below 60, but that’s fine-
But i wonder, can you can attach some graphics stuff to it to make it even more than 60 fps…?🤔 (i ain’t good with technology terms sorry)

note:no body is talking about
you bought a core i3 8th generation with a cpu family that prioritizes power efficiency over performance, (U intel family). If you spent 10 more pounds you would have gotten a better machine.
Actually a really cool and entertaining video, well done Guiny!
I have an M3 Pro MacBook Pro for my Video editing and in my opinion, apart from intense gaming Apple Silicon changes the game.
Scrubbing through a 4K 30FPS timeline is super fast and I struggle to find anywhere where it can lag. Even if you spent £10000 on a Windows PC I think it still wouldn’t beat a Mac with Apple Silicon with FCP, Premiere (which is bad everywhere anyway) or Resolve. I get why people like Windows but for me it’s too unstable, laggy for my work and a fresh copy of MacOS is great, there are still lots of things that you can change but they are not necessary and it’s just so much quicker to get ready and working compared to Other Windows.
personally for the unstable and laggy part of windows, linux is a thing but unfortunately it hasnt matured enough to support mainstream programs yet.
A very small portion of what you said is correct.
@@randomgamingin144p I agree, the MacOS is just the easiest to do work, Windows is not necicerily refined but great for gaming and Linux is well… I’m not sure what Linux is really for but it seems useful for coding projects and stuff like that.
@@user-nd3jq8tj4x Well different people have different opinions and I find Mac the best for my work but Mabye you find Windows the best for what you do.
maybe because Final Cut Pro is only supported on Mac? anyway fair point lol
Ain’t no way you went lite mode 2:04
To be fair the mac that you bought was from 2019
I use a Mac for minecraft, and it runs fine. With a few optimisation mods you can get it running even better. The fact that it also it still using and intel and not their M1 chip does make a difference as well.
keep this very good work up! love this serie and your vids😍
if u bought macbok air m1 or m2 or m3 the fps can reach more than 500 fps even with the lowest spec
It is so stupid and silly to do these tests on Macs. Because Macs are made/optimized for "Best Of the Best" Professionals like 3D Graphic designers, Programmers, Video Editors, Photo Editors, Music Producers. Macs are not made for gaming NERDS 🤓. It is for the Real, Ultimate, Best Of The Best Professionals.
Average Guiny idea
bro fr said when switching my camera angle the windows laptop is not good BRO THE WINDOWS LAPTOP IS FURTHER AWAY.
and does anyone sit at that extreme of a angel and the macbook most likely costed more when new and you can get way better display panels if you spend more

you should compare it with laptop from same year for same price

The laptop has a screen resolution of 2560 by 1600 px, but maOS renders everything at 2880x1800 and scales it. I believe Apple did this on 2016 MacBooks or newer.

Good vid, but as the owner of an m3 Macbook air, dude its crazy how much better m series is. This is NOT a fair comparison, I would have loved to see an m3 machine vs something.
I have a 2018 Macbook Air with slightly worse specs and I can’t even run 1080p :(
take an m series macbook, they are much quicker, I can play mc on my mac at like 100 fps USING 40 WATTS OF POWER
next time buy a 2020-2023 macbook. the M-Series chip makes it faster.
Guiny videos are hilariously good so thats why i can't skip his video's ❤
thank you!!
fyi silicon macbooks perform way better than the intel ones
the first problem is buying a mac from the 2016-2019 era, and if you really wanted to, and wanted a comparison that is more fair you also could've just buy a model with a dedicated AMD graphics card, but you should've just bought an M1 Air, yes it costs more, but it is worth it, i've seen the M1 getting a few hundred FPS. But other than that this video was great.
this video blew my mind, the visuals were stunning!
The Macs that have Apple's Silicon chips work very well for supported games, I moved to a M3 MacBook Air from my 2017 MacBook Pro and it made that big of a difference.
this guy hella underrated bro
we don't care anymore if you don't have a handle and a username
DUDE BOTH THE WRONG MACBOOK! Man, you got scammed! You should’ve gotten a M1 MacBook Air from Wallmart! The price for performance you get on this machine is UNCOMFORTABLE with the Windows price for performance! Every Mac user say that Intel Macs are literally SCAMS compare to M based Macs! You should sell this one and buy a M1 Air!
Note: The M1 doesn’t make ANY noise (simply because it doesn’t have a fan), it’s battery lasts for HOURS longer and it has more then double the performance of the MacBook you both and that’s just the Air! The M chip is really something else and I really recommend you to try it!
I actually really love MacBooks . Although I don’t own one yet, I’ve seen some of my class mates using MacBooks and they look fantastic
Hey, a quick tip. I get that you already have a windows laptop and computer, but if you ever want, you can run windows 10 (11 unofficially) on any Mac (WITH AN INTEL CPU, but yours qualifies), in case you want/need to run any windows apps or games (such as Skyrim, which only released for windows on computers).
Nice vid Guiny. Was verry funny watching you try a Mac for the first time! ❤
A lot of light games can run run really well on MacBooks, if you have enough time to get it working. I am exclusivley on MacOS now as the state of Windows is just getting worse and worse. Geometry Dash, Roblox, Most browser games, Minecraft and even the latest version of X-PLANE works pretty decently on my 2015 MacBook Pro. (Quad-Core Intel Core i7, 16GB Ram)
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013)
processor 2.3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7
Memory 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB
of my macbook pro can you plz tell if my laptop is good to play minecraft plz
*Extra* I get 100 fps with 4k
Budget? For whom, Jeff Bezos?
Apple products and budget go together like Minecraft youtubers and the CPS.
Try a Mac Mini with M1 or M2, that'll be fair, and the +1000 Native FPS will show you the real power.
Why would you compare a macbook from like 2017 to a 2022 laptop lmao. It's like comparing a sea turtle to a tortoise to see who would be able to swim faster

Yessss he posted it I have been waiting
The videos keep getting better and better ❤
bro 100fps?!?!?!? my 600$ dell laptop runs mc in 400fps and can even handle BSL shaders 60 fps
3:38 you are comparing a old mac to a newer pricy windows laptop, if you got a macbook air or mac mini with the M3 chip, you'd get amazing performance
And the M3 macs now have ray tracing and mesh shader support
To be fair the Windows laptop he is using looks like a $450 2022 HP Victus, which is an entry-level gaming laptop that has entry level specs. It also can be had for way below the price the Mac launched with. just saying.
You bought the same macbook as I have. LOL
Mr -100 IQ you arent doing a windows vs macos YOU ARE DOING HP VS MACBOOK those are different dont just say windows this windows that.
the shittest take on gaming on macs
I bet the victus didnt cost 300$
compare an m1 or an m2 mac
DDR3 is not significantly slower than DDR4, it just use more energy
Testing the 4 year old Macbook Air (used) with M series chip would've been the least respect you could've shown for users for clickbait thumbail instead of an Intel chip one.
I’m a Linux gamer. Minecraft is faster than Mac or Windows. I don’t play that many games, but if I want a windows specific game, I use steam, thanks to proton.

the problem is really the Intel Hardware in that chasis . the M1 Macbook would have been better but i think you wont get one for 400$
the new m chips are better than the old intel ones

I haven't seen the video yet. But assuming that he said that the video that he bought a MacBook pro 2019 (which has a 8th gen cpu). I can take a lucky guess that it should be able to at least crack up to 500 FPS or more with performance booster mods. I'll update the comment and see if I was right :3
Update: I forgot that these generations of MacBooks for some reason don't have a Dedicated GPU, so it's most likely it's gonna crack about maybe 300 FPS or more with fps booster mods
Final update: I finally watched the video, and I was actually really close. It got 252 FPS which was really close to 300 FPS. So yeah... I was wrong :P
