Still LPDDR3 with 16GB RAM limitation. What an embarrassment, all phone SoC today use LPDDR4(x) and technically support more RAM than the desktop Intel CPUs.

- jrs95 9y agoDoes anyone know if Ryzen will support LPDDR4 in it's mobile chips? I tried Googling around for it but couldn't get an obvious yes or no. Seems sort of unlikely, but if they do support it a lot sooner than Intel, that would be a big win for AMD. Even more unlikely would be a Ryzen powered MacBook Pro with 32GB of LPDDR4 RAM...but I'd be willing to pay a lot of money for that. I know Apple tends to prioritize single core performance on their own chips, but almost all of the desktop software their pro users are using would run better on Ryzen than on Intel's current offerings. Plus, with Intel's Iris Pro gone, Ryzen might allow them to have better integrated graphics, and bring back a 15" model with no dGPU.
- compuguy 9y agoWait, they aren't making chips with Iris Pro graphics anymore? That seems like an odd decision.
- matwood 9y agoThat's a bummer. The upside is that I will continue to have no reason to upgrade my current MBP.
