Title says it all. I’m planning to get an M2 Mac Studio soon. Personally, I’m still coming to a decision on the following SoC & RAM options:
SoC:
- M2 Ultra with 24-core CPU, 60-core GPU, 32-core Neural Engine
- M2 Ultra with 24-core CPU, 76-core GPU, 32-core Neural Engine
RAM:
- 128GB
- 192GB
To current M2 Studio owners, how did you choose your specs and why? Also could you comment on real world performance with regards to your workflow(s)? Thanks! :)
What use case would you need more than 32gb RAM?
I spin up a lot of Docker containers with large data sets locally.
My M2 Max MBP with 64GB RAM can have a decent chunk of apps open while handling 1500 open browser tabs in about 50GB of RAM with no swap. As an example. Used quite a bit of swap on my M1 16GB previously.
