This PC setup is a far-off dream for me, a lowly MacBook user. YouTube/TechSource I love playing video games, but as a Mac owner, I often have a case of PC envy. Almost all the best games debut on PCs and only show up on Macs years later — if at all.

With recent PC-exclusive games including, and 'Destiny 2' — the sequel to one of my favorite video games — launching this month, I recently started considering buying a gaming PC for the very first time. Fortunately, I found an even better and much cheaper solution, one that turned my 2013 MacBook Pro into a legitimate game machine: Nvidia's GeForce Now app. I first learned about GeForce Now earlier this week in a random video I found from a YouTuber named Karl Conrad. After doing some quick research about people trying and failing to use their Macs as game machines, I discovered, where he mentioned the software as a potential solution. A free download in the US and Canada, the GeForce Now app lets you play on your Mac the kind of high-end games that typically require a Windows PC computer with a dedicated graphics processor. GeForce Now is only in beta, but Nvidia is a trusted company when it comes to gaming, and the app works like a charm.

Even their Mac Pro line isn't suited for gaming as you get workstation graphics with limited DirectX support. If more games are to be ported to the Mac platform, Apple need to market it more that way.
They have the power, it's the OS compatibility holding them back. I agree though, Apple doesn't seem to put any focus into gaming, which makes me wonder why they cost as much as they do anyway. Who needs all that power to run basic apps? Originally posted by: Macs aren't primarily meant for gaming, nor have I ever seen or heard Apple praise their Mac platform as a solution for gamers.

I believe it is about elitism, some people just like the designs though.

I believe it is about elitism, some people just like the designs though. They're clean machines and work well but it seems to me that many people buy them simply out of hate for Microsoft. Look at the history of Apple all the way back to the Big Blue days.
At one time Apple was all about taking it to the 'man'. Now they sold out just like the rest and became the 'man'. If people hate Microsoft that much I think Linux is still the better option.
