Ah yes, that is the one I am looking to upgrade to, and hence the $200 difference from the M1 Pro. I don't need 64GB, and $800 to go from 16GB (w/M1 Pro) to 64

I don't need 64GB, and $800 to go from 16GB (w/M1 Pro) to 64GB is highway robbery, despite the usual Apple inflated RAM pricing.
So, if 24 Core GPU can give 13-14 hours of battery, that'd be ideal.
- Eugeleo 5y agoHey, a bit off-topic, but what do you think about only buying a 16GB version? According to a YT video I saw, the 16GB and 32GB Macs are roughly equal in terms of performance. [1] I'm on the fence between buying a 32GB 24 core GPU Max version, or going for a cheaper 16GB 14 core GPU and using the leftover money to buy a home server with good GPU and RAM. I'd like the Mac to sustain 95% of my programming, design, and data science needs, but I'd be willing to run the last 5% (gaming, very deep neural networks, or big datasets) remotely. Especially if I could get more bang for my buck buying a home station instead of maxing out the MacBook. [1]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqiYSt4nAFs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqiYSt4nAFs
