![]() I gave in a week after my 57th birthday this past March, a purchased a base-model MacBook Air for myself. However, the new MacBook Air is about three times faster than its immediate Intel-powered predecessor, which had been bogged down by its outdated integrated Intel Iris Plus graphics. And the M1 chip's integrated GPU performed (as reported in its GPU score) about equal to that of a typical 4-year-old GeForce GTX 1060 in GPGPU processing (this means GPU-accelerated video rendering). With overall Standard-preset scores in the lower half of the 300s (versus the mid-700s that a properly configured current-gen 8-core/16-thread Windows desktop PC can achieve), it's still no match for a decent current-gen desktop or laptop with a decent discrete GPU. It was about as powerful (fast) as a 3- to 4-year-old Windows desktop PC with average enthusiast components of its vintage.
