Don't let the haters say otherwise, you can game on an M1 MacBook Air just fine with GeForce Now

Gaming on a MacBook

I’ve never been shy about my stance on Mac gaming — thanks to advances in Apple’s M-series chips such as the M2 and the anticipated M3 that's rumored to be manufactured with a 3nm fabrication process — most MacBooks can handle PC titles as well as any Windows laptop. And in some cases, like with Resident Evil Village, we see how that experience can even surpass the vast majority of gaming laptops and PCs thanks to the power of Apple’s silicon alone.

On the other end of the spectrum, we have Chromebooks like the Acer Chromebook 516 GE that can now handle the best gaming PCs due to streaming services like Nvidia's GeForce Now. Even the best Chromebooks with far weaker specs than most other laptops can run some of the best PC games out there like Cyberpunk 2077 and more with little issue. As long as you have a solid internet connection of course.
