Can the MacBook Pro (14-inch, M1 Max, 2021) run Krita?
Not judged
Not judged — we don't have enough verified information to say whether the MacBook Pro (14-inch, M1 Max, 2021) can run Krita. This is not a "no".
Nothing we can verify rules it out, but we can’t confirm it either. Each component below says which information is missing — compare those requirements with your own laptop’s configuration. We don’t guess.
Component by component (minimum)
CPU
This laptop: not determined · Required: 1.6 Ghz Dual-core CPU
Why not judged: There is no verified way to compare processors by name, so the CPU is shown for reference but not marked as meeting or missing the requirement.
GPU
This laptop: not determined · Required: not specified
Why not judged: The publisher's requirements don't specify the GPU.
RAM
This laptop: not determined · Required: 4 GB
Why not judged: This laptop is sold with different amounts of RAM (or has upgradeable slots), so we can't tell how much yours has.
Storage
This laptop: not determined · Required: 1 GB
Why not judged: Installed storage depends on the configuration bought, and we don't record it. Check the free space on your own drive.
Operating system
This laptop: macOS · Required: Windows 8.1; also available on macOS (macOS requirements are listed separately on the Steam page)
Why not judged: The publisher's platform listing doesn't name a single operating system, so we can't match it to this laptop.
“Not judged” means we lack verified information for that component. It never means the laptop fails it.
