No mention (nor on macrumors) as to whether or not this means that the MBP would support >16GB of RAM (the previous claim, IIUC, is that Kaby Lake would handle this for the low-powered DIMMs Apple prefers).
- jarym 9y agoNo mention because nothing has changed - 16Gb is still the limit on MBPs :-( I heard a whimper about courage...
- mbell 9y agoYou won't see > 16GB till cannon lake, probably some time in 2018. Kaby lake nor coffee lack support LPDDR4 and LPDDR3 is limited to 16GB. This is an Intel problem, not an Apple problem really, the only thing Apple could do about it is use DDR4L which would cut battery like quite a bit and require a whole new motherboard (and probably battery) design.
- boulos 9y agoAhh, I had missed that only the U variant of Kaby might do LPDDR4. Cannonlake it is.
