For context, if you get the beefiest MacBook Pro right now you'd pay an extra $1000 to upgrade from 48GB to 128GB RAM. For lower end machines you pay more for RAM, $200 per each 8GB you add on top of the 8GB baseline.

I'm considering doing that for my own iMac, and I saw that a 32 GB memory unit is about $65, so 4 of those $260. For laptops it's probably different, but surely it's going to be less than $1000.

- noisycarlos 3y agoCan't add RAM to any Mac (except the Pro, I think). You have to buy it from Apple with all the RAM it'll ever have. Which is why they overprice the upgrades so much
- goosedragons 3y agoYou can't add RAM to the M series Mac Pro. It's just a Mac Studio with PCI-e slots these days.
