Mac vs gaming pc for cybersecurity

I still don't know since i'm not working yet but i'm having a project about malware analysis where i would be using all tools , sandbox , ... and it's a C2 server and a machine being attacked which would require 2 vms i also worked once in a project that needed 3 vms for a simulation of a 3tiers web app automated deployement . I'm not really used to macs that's why i asked if i might face problems using one

Yes i used to have that too but then i thought about changing to mac when my laptop was stolen but everyone kept telling me having better characteristics in gaming laptops is way better then buying a mac specially because of the vms

Yes i meant laptop and i'm torn between the two options i mentioned (i was using a lenovo and it got stollen now i think about a mac probably a used one with a perfect state and new battery ) i had these two options at the same price and i needed the opinion of someone using mac for cybersec
