Unless Op has a very special use case that requires an Nvidia card or something then he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. The M2 Max fully specced 14” is insane. Being able to take the laptop anywhere and not need to plug it in and still get all the same power I normally get if it’s plugged in without the worry of the battery dying in 30m is incredible.
Can you share where you’re finding inadequate performance? Genuinely curious to know
