More ram does not equal greater detail in games….
Tha ram is not "part of the same chip" it's just the same SoC. It in and of itself is not a chip, it's a a miniaturised PCB with places the RAM physically close to the CPU. When we say "chip" in electronics, we generally mean the same package and micrometre or smaller distances to different silicon dyes within the package. It would technically be possible to swap memory out on one of those SoC's per se, but rather difficult.
You can also very easily fill that amount of ram up as a developer or engineer in many run of the mill situations.
If you are a programmer, you probably shouldn't compile that big of a project locally on your own computer.
I just bought a M3 Max 14 with 36GB of RAM
I have an M3 Pro MacBook Pro with 18GB of ram and 1TB of storage. It’s fantastic, and I don’t see myself needing more than 18GB for the foreseeable future. If I need to get a new MacBook 4 years from now, then so be it.
Did not upgrade I am still using M2 Max on my studio and MacBook Pro I am an architect and a game developer on my down time so all my Mac come with 64 gb ram I think if you are buying a Mac you have money so might as well just pay for the ram
5:37 M3 pro 18gb ram isn't the same price as M3 24gb ram? It's $600 AUD more?
show your winer bro stop yapping
Great video👍 I'm thinking to buy m3 pro 18gb RAM, do you guys think it should be suitable for Topaz AI work on videos up to 1 minute long? I see recommended RAM is 32gb, currently using macbook m2 air with 8gb and the rendering time is too long
Just bought a new MBP 18GB 512GB version and yesterday faced a beachball when doing basic tasks, web browsing, and file searching in spotlight, while transferring music to a flash drive. I also noticed the RAM memory was not under to much load or pressure buy doing these tasks took up almost 13 gb of ram. I updated the software to the latest version, hoping this gets resolved but today an basic App glitched staying frozen on the screen. I have not even loaded this thing up yet or pushed it. I would like to use this for video editing but now I feel like this machine is not enough. M3 Pro chip and new architecture seem to be needing more RAM to run basics, is that true?
Reminded me that years ago, people claimed Apple computers were better because they had higher specifications for their entry level machines than other computers. Well, I guess they got over that!😂
For the sake of accuracy, swapping doesn't actually mean that some of the SSD is used as RAM. It means that data that isn't immediately needed gets copied onto the SSD, then it becomes temporarily inaccessible. When it's needed again, the current content of the RAM is saved onto the SSD and the required data gets copied back from the SSD to the RAM, hence the name "swap".
So through an everyday analogy, imagine that you have 5 cars. You need all of them, but only one fits in your garage. Therefore, the other 4 you store 2 blocks away in a warehouse. Every time you need a different car, you need to drive your current car to the warehouse, swap it to another one, then drive away. When you need your other-other car, again, you need to drive to the warehouse and replace your cars. You can potentially use all of them, but it takes time to get access to one that's not currently with you.
I'm oversimplifying it a bit, but you get the idea. Once your machine starts swapping, your performance goes downhill. The reason is that data in the RAM can be accessed within a few nanoseconds while data stored on the SSD can only be accessed in the range of a few microseconds, which is 1000x slower.
No real customer should buy 8 GB even in M1. Only stupid YouTuber suggested 8GB for traffic
it makes sense you can only get 48G or higher with max models.
I got a 36G. 18G is always in use. then it goes up to 30G.
128G
Where in the world is is $200 more to go from 16GB to 24GB?
In Canada, 16GB is $2599, 24GB isn’t even listed as an option and 36GB is $4349.
Refurbished 16GB is $2199.. again no 24GB offered and 32 is $3100
I wish I could ask him if he would recommend
-16GB 1 TB ssd M3 8CPU 10GPU or
-18GB 512ssd M3 Pro 11cpu 14 gpu
My old MacBook from 2012 just does the spinning color wheel all the time.. I want to avoid that.. it says 8GB Ram ddr3.. not sure if it sucks because it’s old or because the storage is almost full or what..
Just using the browser foe trading, I need 50 GB. That is how crazy it is.
I have the 16” MBP with base M3 Max and 36GB RAM. I’m a software engineer and sometimes need the RAM for pretty demanding workflows but 48GB is overkill for me. I occasionally make some music on logic, play some very light games, and use light apps like inDesign as well. Appreciate the MBP speakers but I would trade them for a lower price as I use IEMs or AirPods Max when I need to and consume content on iPad, PS5, or TV. If you are not using pro apps or developing software, 16-24 gigs of RAM is enough.
I don’t get it. You say go for an older model Mac and pay for extra RAM. So you suggest instead of 24GB RAM machine, might as well go for m3 with 18GB ram cuz it’s the same price… wah? What are you saying
I use my laptop for daily day to day task and my 8gb ram mac is always breathing and slow
do me the max ram i would choose is 32GB – at least you can't go over it anytime soon with updates and other things too
as i forget to close tabs as i want to work as
18GB is the basic size for everyone but using 12GB ram of my Windows ( MACBOOK PRO ) – Claims to be a PRO when
i would choose to pay bit more at least i can't blame mac closing problems
I barely game on my PC even if is was running windows my laptop burns out like to 92c that what Nvidia think a gaming PC should be that high when is could fit in a badroom which is overheats on 3D games that from 2008 that what i called a gaming laptop fails at basic games that has more than 12GB vram that barly works over 1GB before overheating
I should has Skipped gaming by laptop and go right to high battery laptop to steam them is better for my heath
In memory databases use a ton of RAM. Far more than what's available on the Mac. A small deployment would use 768GB RAM, but it can go MUCH higher.
What's an in-memory database used for? Real-time analytics mostly.
99% of youtube bloggers have 0 knowledge of the content they are producing. This video is no exception. All useless info presented without any real world tests.
Your video reads like Apple Marketing’s pricing strategy.
do (“for only $200 more you get…”) { cost += $200; } until OUT_OF_MONEY;
I have had an Apple computer since the G4 tower in 2002. I still love Apple but they priced me out of the market awhile back.
I just crashed my BRAND NEW Mac Book Pro M3 MAX with 36 gigs for memory trying to edit 4K video. TWICE. It "ran out of memory" and froze up. I was using latest Premiere Pro software… that might be why it crashed. Either Adobe makes SHITE software or the Mac needs hella more memory. I'm about to take it back but have no idea what to do next.
