I'm not sure if Apple is able to run tighter timings with on package memory. Maybe? The main advantage I am aware of with on package RAM is lower power consumption. Shorter traces means the memory controller PHY uses less power.

by ac29 2y ago
Yeah, this is where Apple has an advantage. It doesnt use special RAM, but what it does do is give you more than 2 channels in a laptop (on Pro/Max/Ultra). LPDDR5 does use less power than DDR5, but what I was specifically referrin

I wonder if this is economically feasible. A fast charger is going to take at least 20-30 mins to charge a car, where filling up with gas is more like 5 minutes. This means a gas station can get significantly more customers per hour than an

That is textbook fraud. Courts consider intent, you cant just rules lawyer them with an argument that "it didnt technically say my public charger had to be accessible to the public".

Yep, also putting all of the laptops at "50%" brightness isnt an equal comparison. One panel's 50% might be the same brightness as another's 100%.
