Anyone know if the ram multiples of the M4 are better than the M3? Example: could a base model M4 sport more than 24GB of ram?


Not for the iPad (8/16 GB)


Right I was thinking more laptops and desktops but yeah 8/16 makes a ton more sense for the ipad only.


The M3 can support 64 GB but Apple artificially limits it to 24 GB. There's no telling when they will decide to uncripple it.


How did you come up with that? Based on the core layouts or something?

Regarding crippling I only went with a max because I wanted more ram. I would have loved to have gone with an M3 pro but 36GB wasn’t enough.


128-bit LPDDR5 supports 64 GB. You can see this in a few laptops.
