    32 gb ram is more than enough for any work including gaming. 96 gb ram is overkill.

      The real question is, will it overheat like M2?

            Anonymous, 30 Nov 2022I also expect cheaper 6GB/128 Macbook SE variant as well.Then you don’t know Apple.... they don’t under power anything.....lol. Personally, I don’t really care. I am not upgrading till they bring back the Magic/TouchID Bar.....That was a game changer..... To be honest, the newer Macs are hideous with the notch, etc. look fat and clunky. Ugly. And no Magic Bar......

                  Here we go again. People comparing x86 to ARM architecture 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

                    96GB RAM? My Intel NUC PC has 32GB RAM and I found that to be way more than enough.

                            FatShady, 30 Nov 2022i've seen some games that use up to 14gb after a while... moreThere are games that can eat your RAM as much as you feed them and it does not show any difference. I have tested with 8GB vs 16GB games like forza and some fps games.

                            Have 9GB in and it eats around 7GB and when there is 16GB it eats around 14GB so basically with 32GB it probably eats 28GB or something

                              kek, 30 Nov 2022It's fair to say that 16 GB is still enough for most o... moreI am running on 10 years old i5 with 8GB DDR3 and dont see any issues.
                              That 90% is a bit too optimistic. I bet that there is still a large percent of people that have 4GB RAM as they have old laptops. There are still even new laptops that have only 4GB RAM in them and also 16GB RAM you mostly only see in laptops that are for gaming and are advertised as gaming laptops. 8GB is even now standard and probably stay as standard for long time more.

                                      So is this an overkill? No? If not then 16GB ram for a phone isn't an overkill as well.
