      Apple's GPU cores suck. As much as you can genuinely praise their CPU work (which you can somewhat easily upscale with more cores and more cache), even the most high-end ARM Mac has a GPU that's just an iPhone GPU with more cores but without any actual high-end features such as raytracing (more of the same limited cores can't just magically become a raytracing engine). Even Steam Deck's GPU is capable of raytracing because it's not an upscaled phone GPU but a downscaled high-end GPU.
