This isn’t at all true despite Apple’s marketing. The M2 gets trounced by the 3060 in any graphical benchmark other than power draw, comparing it to a 3090 is just laughable.

Like I absolutely love my M2 air, it’s the best laptop I’ve ever owned but it is definitely not a competitive gaming machine.

The idea of trying to fit a 3090 in a laptop is amusing.

That’s the point the comment you’re replying to is making, just with more words.

The original topic of conversation was:

> Nvidia primarily makes add on GPU's, if I understand their business correctly. Apple integrated a GPU onto its m2 (or whichever chip is used in their studio) that performs comparably to the 3060, and even beat the the 3090 in some benchmarks/workloads. I think that's pretty impressive.

The form-factor of the 3090 isn't relevant.

Kind of like how the form factor of the space shuttle doesn't matter when comparing it's peak speed and cargo capacity to my pickup truck.
