CHAMPION CHIP The M4 powerhouse inside Apple’s latest laptop release makes it capable of taking on some staggeringly serious workloads for 3D-focused artists
-
There was a time that if you were doing more than just a little casual 3D work, you were doing it on a Windows or a Linux machine. Partly because more power was available in a more configurable way, and also down to the fact that not much 3D software ran on a Mac.
But things have changed. The move away from Intel chips to Apple silicon means serious work can now be done on a Mac; great news for creatives who have traditionally been Mac users for image editing, digital painting and design work, where Macs were already a firm favourite.
That trend continues with the 2024 MacBook Pro 16, which features the new M4 chip. When compared to previous models, this M4 Pro is significantly faster than even the M1 Ultra, itself a powerful machine.
