After years of relying on the familiar Windows ecosystem, I finally made the leap and switched to the Mac. Leaving behind the muscle memory of Windows laptops was a massive shift, but upgrading to the sheer power of Macbook completely redefines my daily workflow.

Hello, shader packs on Mac use OpenGL, which isn't supported by Macs chips, so on my MacBook Pro (M4, 10-core GPU, 16 GB) Iris + Complementary runs at about 22 FPS at the native 3024×1964. I made a free mod with shaders written in Metal instead.

- Balanced, 1440p: 137–156 FPS

- Balanced, native: 108-124 FPS

- Ultra, native: 64–80 FPS

The newest version (1.2.2) adds Distant Horizons presets and reflective far water, on top of an in-game settings menu with about 120 options. No Sodium needed. Apple Silicon only (M1 or newer, macOS 15 or later), Minecraft 26.3 with Fabric.

It's also in review on Modrinth, so if you'd rather install it from there, it should be up soon.

If you have an M1/M2/M3 or a Pro/Max chip, I'd love to know your numbers.

the best choice I’ve ever made frfr💯💯

Huge investment! Price: 94k, battery health: 90%, 16inch, 16gb & 512gb

Please don’t order M5s right now… they might get cheaper after that release, even if you don’t want to buy the very latest generation….

Just grabbed this one from Micro Center, price is about $700 cheaper than education price and $1,100 cheaper than the full price from Apple Store.

It was at $4,199 but by the time I pulled the plug it already went up by $100 - but still a pretty good price IMO. After I picked mine up, price went up by another $200.

Specs:

• 16-inch Model
• M5 Max (40-Core GPU)
• 64 GB of RAM
• 2 TB SSD

Edit: Just set it up and looks like I lost 4 months of limited warranty for the save - but I'll take it!

My current MacBook is a basic, standard no features added MacBook Pro 2015. It’s fine, it gets the job done, but it’s slow, things take time to load, I bought it when I was in high school

I just purchased the following specs in a MacBook Pro. I’ll be honest, I’m an Attorney, I just needed something fast that could keep up with all my excel sheets, emails, Webex / Zoom court hearings. It’s probably overkill for what I’m using it for, but I’m always on the go and want something reliable

$5,528.81 All In

Apple MacBook Pro 16 Inch M5 Max
64 GB Ram 4TB Storage 18CPU 40 GPU
Nano Texture Display

It’s getting shipped to me, Seller said it maybe has 10-12 charging cycles, barely used, too big for his liking. I also wanted to stick to a 14 inch but thought this may be a good deal

What would be the reasonable price if I want to sell my macbook pro 2012 editing 1tb storage, 16 gb ram . Condition is good only 2 buttons in the keyboard not working and speaker voice is slightly reduced?

I am planning to buy m1 pro 16inch 16gb ram 512gb ssd. Currently my work is i might run 2 nextjs applications in local which ai based application. 1 nestjs application which i will run in local. May be i might have one docker server in local this is bare minimum i might run concurrently and then in browser of course hardly 10 tabs i might open. How the performance will be the real sad thing i missed one costly miss of 32gb ram model 14inch m1 pro model. Can you please suggest me because i am looking for purchase

Bonjour à tous, j’ai un soucis avec mon Mac book pro sous l’OS 26.7
J’ai dû changer mon mot de passe lors de la dernière mise à jour mais je ne m’en souviens pas. La seule option de récupération que j’ai apparement c’est la clé de secours mais elle n’apparaît pas dans le trousseau sur mon iPhone. Je suis complètement bloqué et j’ai 17 ans de photos dessus. Je suis au fond du trou.
Si jamais quelqu’un a une solution au moins pour récupérer mes photos.
Le Mac est bien dans mes appareils sur mon iPhone pourtant.
Merci d’avance.

Am I the only one that cant survive a day without using FULL BLAST on Mac Fan Control App nowadays?

running Golden Gate MacOS - Brave (30 tabs) / notion / claude (chat only).

im thinking of opening the back see if there's something to be cleaned but i have a feeling there's not gonna be much to find.

Picked up today for $1600 CAD with the 96w charger. Might not be the best price but super happy with the machine itself especially coming from Windows. Cheers!

Hello, I am a longtime windows user and have never used macbook before, though i do use an iphone.

I am really confused about which one should I buy.

I came across MacBook pro M4 pro chip (24gb) 12-core CPU & 16-core GPU -512gb storage.
And MacBook pro M5 base version(16gb) 512 gb, (both of them 14 inch)

I am low on budget and found this two almost same price, watched lot of YT videos and reviews but still confused!

looking for some good advise on this. Mostly use it for Programming, studying, docker, few ML and some web browsing(netflix, YT, etc)

on apple's own refurb webiste i found a M5 PRO MBP for $2550, after employee discount it comes down to $2150, it has 24gb ram and 1tb stoagre,16in with 18 core cpu and 20 core gpu........its just in my budget(almost exactly), is it a good deal?

M6 is already here and we are heading a lot of rumours lately about touch screen and redesign but what all is true no-one clearly knows.

Since the Mac mini had price hikes, what price can we expect for a MacBook Pro M6 base variant?

Any config guesses?

Will the base variant now get 24GB RAM?

Hey everyone,

My space bar is not working properly on the left side. I bought a self repair kit and I hope replacing the connectors and the key cap will solve this. I just wanted to know if anyone had problems with the keyboard as well. I own this machine for 2 years or maybe a little bit longer, and I believe I take good care of it.

Thanks! Have a great week to y’all!

So I got my 1first macbook which is a used one macbook pro m1 chip 2020 13in, 16gb ram 256gb storage I have got external ssg so no problem with that I got it for 43k inr I.e $475 the battery health is 85% at 685 charge cycles.

I basically bought it for editing videos like I am just starting to learn till what level editing I can do on it and how many years can I use it without problem I'll use it mainly witha charger plugged in and my charge pattern will be 20% to 80% and after 80% I use limit and after some time I let it charge to 100 then plug off the charger and use it for a while then shut it down. The gap is of 12-18 hours between each use sometime less too.
