"Running fantastic" is what Apple would advertise, but what matters is fps, utilisation and thermals when benchmarking games
Defines fantastic because a 1080ti from 4 years ago run faster than the M1. My 2070 could run wow at 144fps, and it's a 2.5y/o card.
Yet most people can't get 60fps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhcJzKCcpMQ
Edit: thanks for the dates update

Comparing the M1 to a 1080ti is ridiculous. The 1080ti draws 250+ watts. The M1 draws 10w in the MacBook Air.
In the current market you can buy a MacBook Air (an entire laptop computer) for less than buying just a midrange GPU.
Well Apple compared themself to a 3080m which is faster than a 1080ti.
Apple compared the M1 Max to a 3080m. 4x the GPU cores and up to 8x the memory makes a difference, and it wouldn't be at all surprising to see that their numbers are accurate.

lol, got ‘em
No one has explained what you got wrong, so in case anyone reading this is still confused, Apple compared an M1 Max to a 3080m. An M1 Max's graphics card is ~4x as fast as an M1.
Do you have first hand experience with this? I do . We play WoW on MacBook air M1 and it runs fantastic . Better than my intel MacBook Pro from 2019
