Verdict: STRUGGLING
Technical performance analysis: The Apple M1 Pro GPU is capable of handling a wide range of games, but Grand Theft Auto VI's graphics demands may push it to its limits. In 1080p resolution, you can expect an FPS estimate of around 30-40 FPS if settings are optimized. Potential bottlenecks include limited VRAM compared to dedicated gaming GPUs and the performance overhead of running on macOS.
