M3 Max MacBook Pro gaming is 'amazing,' but it's probably not enough to make gamers buy it

MacBook Pro showing Steam.

Apple recently announced the updated 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pros with a whole new line of chips. Starting with the M3, the new laptops can also be configured to ship with the M3 Pro and M3 Max chips inside. The latter, as you'd expect, is the most capable of the three and according to one review, it's quite the gaming powerhouse.

As well it should be. The M3 Max comes with a 30-core GPU attached to a 14-core CPU in its base configuration, but it's likely the model given to this particular reviewer was the upgraded one. That means it has a 16-core CPU and a GPU with a whopping 40 cores. That's a lot.
