thank you for this. I've ordered the same model and spec and I spend 80% of my day using Revit so it's great to know my Apple addiction won't upset my workflow to much. I also hope Autodesk will finally make a Revit for Mac then my whole workflow could move to mac Happy dayz
@@arslanahmadansari it depends how keen you are on Apple. They are great machines, but AutoDesk are crap and spend none of the huge amounts they make in Revit subscriptions every year on making their product run on Mac's. If you just want a great Revit laptop pick a Windows based machine, which I can't help you with. If you really want a Mac go with the highest spec MacBook Pro your budget can handle and use Parallels. The problem isn't Apple, they have done their bit by making great Hardware. The problem is AutoDesk who don't care about anything other than making huge profits. I am still using my M1 and it works fine with the latest Revit. I've had the odd printing issue and Windows ARM feels a bit more basic than normal Windows, but I only use it for Revit & AutoCAD. I don't use 3ds Max. I use MacOS for everything else.
Thank you for doing this. I work almost exlusively in Revit and was tempted to get a Macbook to try it out, but it's obvious from this video the M1 Max cant handle Revit due to virtualization inefficiencies. Although it would still be functional, coming from a 3 year old laptop with an i7 and 1060 GPU I can easily see how choppy the experience is on the M1 max. Zooming should be smooth, rotating and moving the model should be smooth as well, not 'jumpy'. Personally this would drive me crazy. If I only used Revit occasionally the M1 would be a no brainer, but as it is, I prefer to have the much better performance from my 3 year old PC that was only $1500 at the time
I still use a Macbook Pro 15" 2017 and Revit runs exceptionally well on Bootcamp... probably 10x better than it would on M1... sadly we'll probably never gonna get a fully functional Revit on macOS.
Hmm... maybe Autodesk made improvements in how it uses the GPU (I was using Revit 2019), but this is how I remember it running (ie: a bit choppy but quite usable) on my 2018 Mac mini i7 (six-core) in Bootcamp with an RX580 eGPU (similar to a 1060?). It would be fun to have some hardware side-by-side to do comparisons.
I'm considering getting a Macbook Pro and building a Windows-based mini-ITX rig for when I need it. Windows just kills my creative work flow and I no longer want to let a handful of programs dictate the tools that I should and shouldn't use. Autodesk is anti-consumer for not porting all their programs to Mac. Considering how much they charge for a license it should only benefit them to have it available on more platforms. Either way, thanks for confirming that Revit can run in a VM of Windows ARM.
I like this idea! I may do the same, and use a kvm to switch back and forth. May have to loose my magic keyboard. I really only cross over to Windows for Revit so I agree with you, it’s a lot to shift completely to Windows for one program. I’m interested to hear more about what PC build you choose.
@@chelseaanderson22 I'm hoping to build something with Teenage Engineering's Computer-1 case. Small and portable is the goal. The big issue right now is sourcing a powerful Mini-ITX graphics card so I might be stuck having to build it over time as components become available. I'm going to hold off for now though as I've ordered a MacBook Pro M1 Max 64 and want to assess how well, or not, programs like Revit will run in Parallels VM. If it can do what I need it to I may not build a PC after all.
@@Teluric2 They charge $4000 a year for licenses to Autodesk suite. They can easily afford to creat Mac compatible versions of their software to make it easier for their users who are forced to buy PC due to needing 1 or 2 of their apps. They just don't do it bc it would be less profitable. Nothing wrong with that, but it is definitely anti consumer. Just like Apple holding back the iPad even thou[gh it now has the full M1 chip. It helps them make more $ and it forces some people into buying 2 devices instead of just 1.
Hey! great vid. If I continue revit definitely going full blown PC. Those little moments of lag will drive me over the edge. It would be great to see a vid on why one would switch to archicad. Im apple guy at heart but hevnt been sold on Archicad as the software of choice for CD's. Keep up the good work.
It will be interesting to follow up this with the new Snapdragon X Elite chips in the new ARM windows. With just one level of emulation on their new Prizm emulation it may preform well on the windows PC's and better through Parallels on MAC
What about using a cloud system, something like 'jump desktop'? I guess the problem with that is the constant need for high-speed internet, which is not easy to access anywhere. I've seen some people use it on the iPad and basic laptops and are OK with that.
@@ahmadrajabi523 I’ve used Parsec to some really nice results but you’re correct about the internet speed being the main holdup. I’m going to make an M3 Max video soon :) I’ve been using Archicad the last few years but am joining a Revit firm so time to get back in the game.
Thanks, it is nice to see actual operation in the software compared to just benchmarks! I'm going from a couple years-back in terms of memory, but I'd say it is Revit, not this particular setup. That looks quite like I remember it running on my 2018 Mac mini i7 (six-core) in Bootcamp with a RX580 eGPU. And, about as good as the PCs at the college where I took my exams (though who knows what the specs were... but CAD department). Great points on the in-app/plug-in rendering, but lots of rendering options if it doesn't have to work in Revit. Following.... I'm a bit on this quest as well, though just getting back into it after doing a lot of 3D/CAD in the late-90s/early-2000s. But, I've always had to do things the 'hard way' too on Macs instead of PCs, LOL. IMO, it really comes down to workflows. If you're just sitting in one app all day, and it is PC-native, may as well just get a PC. But, if you're doing lots of apps, and prefer the Mac, it might be worth trying to make the PC stuff work on the Mac. That said, I'm weighing the idea of remote-controlling a PC and using a more base-level Mac, as some of the remote-control stuff is now blazing fast (see: parsec.app ). More base Macs are now so good, if the Windows stuff is the 'heavy' app need, maybe just having 2 boxes now wouldn't be such a bad thing.
Great video! This is exactly what I’ve been looking for! I’ve been the crazy person running Revit through Parallels with a TON of patience. I have a 2015 MacBook with 16 gb of ram, giving 8 to Parallels and from what you’re showing I don’t see much of an upgrade. It seems snappier when opening new windows, but zooming in and out has always lagged. I wonder if it is just a Revit issue?Another thing that always takes forever PC or Mac is PDF exports. Is this better on ArchiCAD with M1? I have always used the VRay plugin for Revit, it may be something to try as well. What PC would you recommend for running Revit? It’s either that or I’m going ArchiCAD because I’m that Mac committed! Ha!
@@alex.maxwell I’ve already gone down that path and prefer Parallels for multitasking. I’m going full PC instead. I still will use my Mac laptop and might use Synergy to work between the two.

Been looking at the 13" pro with the M2, never used Mac with these programs. Been wanting to get one but wasn't sure how good it would be running bluebeam, revit, etc...

Hello there great content, i have questions do you recommend purchasing the macbook air for architecture student to last 3 year until graduation? Will laptop Handel all school projects
Better go for a desktop. During school one explores different softwares and workflows, and a mba isn't very suitable for that. Moreover, a laptop can't really handle the heavy workflow of an architecture student, even if it does - it won't be able to do that for a long time, as over a long period, overheating will gradually make it slow.
Hello! Sorry this is so late and may not be helpful any more, but I would consider a gaming laptop for architecture school. Check out MSI and Razer lines. Try to get a 3k of 4k screen. And a 3070 or 3080 graphics card. Keep it cool and well ventilated and it will be your workhorse. I use a Razer Blade 17 for my major tasks these days.
I'm swapping to PC to become a full Revit user. I have always been a MAC user, so no clue about PC. What can you recommend me to buy now? What especifications should I consider? Thanks!
Will you be looking for a laptop or a desktop? Will you be doing any rendering or just Revit and pretty light visualization? Personally, I use a Razer Blade 17 with an i9 and an RTX 3080 TI. It's phenomenal for design and rendering. That may be overkill for you, but if you've only used Macs in the past, I think you would appreciate the Razer line for its design aesthetic.

Hi Mate, thank you for your video but I tried to install Solidworks revit o auto cad through parallels free version of course on MacBook Air m1 and I don't understand why with win 11 arm when I tried to install the installation will stop looks like .net maybe is not present on the system? Are you able to help me? thank you.
Hi, make more videos on the M1 Max, I'm moving to the Mac ecosystem soon, and I always use Revit. But in my personal works I will use archicad!!, your videos are very helpful!, Regard’s!
Have you got the money? Then yes 😅😉 The question of if you should buy it, given you might want to run Revit on a daily basis, probably better to spend it on an older MacBook Pro with Intel processor, and running Windows in Boot camp, and a dedicated graphics card, or spend the money on a PC running Windows.
That Revit performance is quite slow. I use Revit 8 hours a day and even on a reasonable PC Revit can be quite laggy, but this would not be usable for me on big/complex projects. Autodesk expect users to use those Nvdia Quattro cards (that nobody uses, a gaming card is fine). My recommendation would be to use a lower end M1 Macbook for most work in combination with cheap self built desktop PC just for Revit. I wouldn’t expect much from Autodesk in porting Revit or even making a Windows Arm version of it. Autodesk is slow to adapt and this company is better at disappointing it’s users then actually giving them what they want. Revit’s development has also slowed down, the only feature improvement I got excited about was the PDF export in version 2022, something the developers could have added years ago. Autodesk is going to mis the boat, but I’m afraid they can actually afford it as the mac userbase wouldn’t be big enough for them to make it worth their while.
Indeed! I am going to make a follow up video here soon, but I've pretty much lost interest in this sort of workflow and now use a Razer Blade 17 and the cheapest 14" MBP for my Apple needs. As an Archicad user and not a primary Revit user, the decision was ultimately made my GPU performance on Windows machines. Apple simply doesn't build hardware for our profession anymore.
Agreed! Apple no longer really takes the architecture profession into account, in my opinion. Despite pretending to in the latest Mac Studio ads. Their GPU situation is just missing an entirely huge swath of the industry that needs real-time visualization. I will make a follow up video soon, but I've since switched to a Razer Blade 17 and the cheapest 14" Macbook Pro for other random tasks.

As an Archicad user and not a primary Revit user, the decision was ultimately made my GPU performance on Windows machines. Apple simply doesn't build hardware for our profession anymore.
As a mac user for years, I wouldn't recommend for architecture works.
Agreed! Apple no longer really takes the architecture profession into account, in my opinion. Despite pretending to in the latest Mac Studio ads. Their GPU situation is just missing an entirely huge swath of the industry that needs real-time visualization. I will make a follow up video soon, but I've since switched to a Razer Blade 17 and the cheapest 14" Macbook Pro for other random tasks.
you talk so Good 😊
keep making videos
Run RFO benchmark
Hi! What MacBook Pro would you recomend to buy for using Revit, ArchiCad, AutoCad and SketchUp and some world of warcraft after work? :D
None. Get a PC. This is seriously mediocre Revit performance. This is on par with a budget 6 year old windows laptop
I thought autocad revit doesnt work on Mac
Same here
He is using it via Parallels emulator and Windows.
@@rpg896 yes But does it work Well or Better off With Windows
@@haitham1789 that’s another issue, not what was asked.
It works but takes like 2 seconds to load textures on mid projects
Slow painful slow
