| Renderer | GPU Support on macOS | Notes | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | Full (Metal, RT cores on M3) | Native, fast, but subscription cost high. | | Redshift | Partial (Metal, but limited features) | Slower than Windows version. | | Arnold | CPU only (via Apple’s arnold renderer) | Production-proven, no GPU on Mac. | | Cycles (Blender) | Full (Metal + M1/M2 RT) | Best free alternative. |
