But 16gb is what I had in a computer 10 years ago.
I was just window shopping a new gaming rig, and 32gb is affordable (100 bucks), 64gb (200 bucks). Cheap as shit, what’s the hold up?
- saagarjha 6y agoA new processor architecture. Wait a couple months and you'll probably have the computer you wanted released too.
- sroussey 6y agoThe memory is on package, not way out somewhere on the logic board. This will increase speed quite a bit, but limit physical size of memory modules, and thus amount. I think they worked themselves into a corner here until the 16” which has a discreet GPU and reconfiguration of the package.
- egsmi 6y agoA little bit up is was shown the memory in M1 is 5.5GHz DDR5. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25050625 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25050625 Can you please provide the link to 64GB DDR5-5500 for $200? I'd love to buy some too!
- runawaybottle 6y agohttps://www.newegg.com/p/pl?d=64gb+ram https://www.newegg.com/p/pl?d=64gb+ram I guess DDR 500 runs you 350. It looks like Apple charges you 600 for ddr 400 32gb. I don’t know, what am I missing here?
- egsmi 6y agoI’m confused. The link is for DDR4, it’s all too slow, and Apple doesn’t offer a 32MB M1 option at this time.
- spacedcowboy 6y agoCan you actually link to a product, not a search ? Because none of the items coming up there are DDR5-5500, they're all DDR4-3600 or worse, as far as I can see.
- runawaybottle 6y agoI guess I was wrong, everything is ddr4.
- fomine3 6y agoIt's fair but if they choose fast but expensive and unexpandable technology, possibly the choice is failed in some perspective. I think most people who buy mini prefer RAM capacity than faster iGPU.
