What does that mean?
Do other manufacturers, offering 32gb, use desktop RAM? What kind of compromises would that bring to a MBP?
- Bud 8y agoBattery life, cooling, and possibly even physical dimensions. Which is why the big heavy gaming PCs with lots of RAM have laughable battery life.
- jrrrr 8y agoI'd sacrifice all three of those to be able to use a Windows VM with reasonable performance.

They use regular DDR4, talking about "desktop" RAM may not be the best for comprehension, DDR4 is available as SODIMM module and lots of work went into making DDR4 significantly less power-hungry than DDR3. > What kind of compromises would that bring to a MBP? IIRC it would burn battery ~30% faster when sleeping (e.g. when you close the lid, unless you have changed the configuration to be strictly "suspend to disk", which requires going through pmset and the command-line).
