    I’m curious who the target market for this is. When buying your own system you typically want to get the best performance for your money, and with the Apple tax included you’re always going to be paying a lot more for similar specs to something you can build yourself.

      I think for people who buy pre built gaming PCs the Apple tax might be roughly equivalent… If they also have an iPhone or a MacBook already… It might not be a big jump to go to Mac gaming

      You should think of it as an added value for overpriced hardware rather than comparing it to existing gaming hardware. Like most people aren’t building a “gaming PC” exclusively for gaming.
