The i7-8550U I'm posting this from has 32GB RAM?
(It's still obsolete due to shitty GPU, but I'm confused where you're pulling a 16GB limit from)
- skrtskrt 6y agoAh you might be right I'm probably thinking of the current gen Nano I was looking at. Either way, the shitty GPU you mentioned was definitely a reason to wait as well.
- eqvinox 6y agoIndeed I don't see a Nano with more than 16GB RAM, and it's not upgradeable. Meh.
- fomine3 6y ago16GB RAM limit on a few years old portable machine is came from LPDDR3's max capacity. Intel CPU only supports LPDDR3 as low power memory until Ice Lake supports LPDDR4. Apple previously adopted LPDDR3 for MBP15 but they finally changed to DDR4 to increase capacity with sacrifying battery life a bit.
