Myst

With the M3chip, graphics and gaming look better than ever on MacBookAir. And thanks to a new class of GPU architecture, M3 includes DynamicCaching and hardware-accelerated ray tracing. Dynamic Caching drives a huge performance boost for pro apps and games, while hardware‑accelerated ray tracing produces more realistic images for immersive gaming.

This all means that M3 makes gaming a blast on the new MacBookAir. And everything else feels incredibly fast and responsive, too.

Compared to a PC laptop with an Intel Core i7 processor, MacBookAir with M3 delivers up to 2x faster performance,5 up to 50 percent faster web browsing,6 and up to 40 percent longer battery life.7
