MINECRAFT FOR MACBOOK PRICE MAC
Thanks for the response! I was hoping that I could use this device for 5-8 years, like how any typical Mac device was supposed to be used before the Intel to Silicon transition. If you want a deeper opinion: your current Macbook is an amazing machine and will continue to treat you well for many years to come. If you want the new macbook because it's new - it's a great platform. In 2026 if you treat your device with care you're going to find someone that is willing buy it from you, however, if you don't like the price you can always continue using it as a backup machine for travel or streaming. Your device is going to lose value of course but it's not going to be so much that it's worthless and unusable. You stated that your needs are very limited in comparison to someone that relies on application support for a niche profession where developers control the platform and hardware. Even under this argument the current Macbook 16" is going to continue to work just fine.

With that said say they make the decision to upgrade everyone on AppleCare to the equivalent M series model. It would be poor move to stop supporting a device that is still under a contract. Even if they release a new machine in Q4 or Q1 of next year in the 16" space with M-series, those users are going to be covered by Apple care (if purchased). Is it possible Apple will stop supporting Intel in 2023? They could but it wouldn't make sense to do so right now when they are still listing new machines on the store with Intel. One of the main reasons people were ecstatic about the 16" release was because of the increased airflow that reduced the amount of thermal throttling other competitors were seeing (in the i9) This doesn't stop the i9 from being an absolutely incredible platform.
The Macbook 16" competes with the current M series silicone in various tests depending on workload. Your current Macbook isn't going to become crippled because of the new chips. If true: the new M series chips are great and I see a very bright future with Apple's growth into their vertical production integration I'm reading this and inferring that you are looking for community approval to sell your current Mac for the M series chips. TL DR: Will the 16" i9 MacBook outperform the M1 devices? Is the switch from Intel to Mac ASAP before the resale values crater even more justifiable by taking a several hundred dollar loss in resale value? For my needs of solely Minecraft streaming / recording + schoolwork + 2 4k monitors, which setup is better?

I am not interested in switching to Windows or Linux systems, I am only interested in purchasing an Apple device. Intel will lose value massively as more silicon products get released over time, so it's either sell intel right now or don't sell it at all, just keep until the device has hardware issues or gets too slow to use for everyday purposes
I bought my intel device in 2020 and hope to use it till 2026 ideally but because of the Intel -> Silicon transition up until 2022, Intel end of life might be anywhere between 2023 and onwards. I'm going to be powering 2 4k dual monitors.
MINECRAFT FOR MACBOOK PRICE SOFTWARE
Interested in recording and streaming gameplay, so I'd hope that I could get 60+ frames at a minimum while playing with recording software without having to set render distance to 2 or something ridiculous I will not play any other games, just minecraft and schoolwork / productivity Is that price of $300-$1000 justifiable?Ī capable machine that can run for PVP and fast paced action purposes such as factions, Wynncraft, etc., not for casual player purposes like playing singleplayer survival.

I currently own the 16 inch 2019 MacBook Pro ($2840), and was wondering if I should switch to a M1 16 gb Mac Mini + M1 Base Model MBA setup.īecause of the Apple Silicon transition, I was wondering if should bite the resale value loss right now of $300-$1000 by selling the Intel Mac or run the risk of Apple randomly stopping support in 2023/2024 instead of 2026/2027, and then I am stuck in limbo where I won't get software support but I have to keep it and use it until it gets hardware faults / is too slow or sell it for like 200 or 300 bucks. Will thermal throttle be a factor that limits the Intel MacBook, and will the dual 4k monitors be a factor that limits the M1? What will perform better for Minecraft, the 2.4 ghz 8-core Intel i9 and AMD Radeon Pro 5500M 8 GB GPU found in the 16-inch 2019 MacBook Pro, or the M1 8-core chip and 8-core integrated graphics GPU in the Mac Mini? I plan on recording Minecraft videos or streaming while doing Minecraft PVP at the same time, so I cannot have sub-60 FPS, unlike others who play casual Minecraft such as survival singleplayer.
