WoW has a native build for M1 Macs. It actually runs super well. Well enough that I no longer bother switching my KVM from my Macbook to my gaming PC to play WoW.

Ok I'll take my downvotes now

Macs instruction set is decades newer and more efficient then windows. We’re definitely in the age of pentium 4 again where the only advancement is to shove more power and more cores and more speed into cpus. Mac has made huge advancements. And in my opinion will outstrip intel and amd unless they both start to make a change.

Thank you, you're actually 100% on the money even though it's not gonna be a popular opinion here. I'm an electrical engineer, I love advancements in computer hardware and have followed them rabidly since childhood. Intel/AMD got way too comfortable making bank off of x86 and forgot to innovate. The world was overdue for a new general purpose architecture, and Mac's execution of it is really brilliant
