yeah, but you mentioned that it's 4k, so the RAM is probably iRAM (haha)

it’s actually unified memory, so it’s a different animal than normal RAM. I think it has ECC built in. It has 800 GB/s memory bandwidth.

even then it's like $120

whatever, apple needs to make their money somehow 😔

apple literally makes all their money on upgrades tho, it’s like $360 to go from 8 to 24 gb of ram on the MacBook Air, and $360 to go from 16 to 32 gb on the MacBook Pro. And like you said, it’s only $120 for a 64 GB ram stick. And it’s even worse for SSD, it’s $180 to go from 512GB to 1TB on the MacBook Pro, and it’s $180 for each additional TB on top of that. And you can find a 1TB SSD stick for like $60-70 🫠💀

its so stupid, frfr buy a framework laptop and put msx on it if you’re looking for cheap-ish upgrade.
