Crawford13 Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 I'm seeing a lot of these for sale on this forum. Are people disappointed with them? Is there a reason for so many people punting them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterMute Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 Tons of processing power, limited connectivity, and you can’t increase the RAM so if it came with 8Gb, you’re stuck with 8, which isn’t really enough. if you’re spec’ing a new one and can live with the ports, 16 or 32Gb is a definite advantage. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 The general consensus over on the SOS forums seems to be that 8GB on an M1 is equivalent of having 16GB on Intel. This is because of the close integration of the processor and memory (and why the memory can't be retrospectively upgraded). If you've been able to make do with 16GB on your previous Mac then 8GB on an M1 should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
