Therefore, I wanted to see how playable AAA games were on the new M1-based Mac, given the giant M1 GPU and its UMA architecture that should speed up memory reads and writes between CPU and GPU. I am confident the company is talking more about iOS developers' games, but it did demonstrate AAA games like Tomb Raider, which led me to believe that AAA games were a target. Gaming has not been much of a focus for the Mac operating system, but it has been a significant point of success for Apple on iOS. At Apple's WWDC and Mac product launch, gaming (game/games/gaming) was cited 23 times, so I believe Apple intended to create a good gaming experience.
My expectations for AAA gaming on any 13' notebook with integrated graphics are low for any IGP notebook brand.
