Futureproofing it for the next N years? Playing some mad games?
Honestly no idea I just thought to take the current top tier benchmark and one-up it.
Edit: on reflection I generally max out my MBPs out of habit to get the longest shelf life possible. Perhaps it’s just habit.
Edit2: if it helps I tend to get a new laptop every 5/6 years. The aim here would be to happily bespoke the hell out of a system and get more than 6 years out of it.
I’m with you on this, especially with regards to RAM. Take whatever seems a bit overkill today, double it, and you have what passes as functional in five years (assuming you keep software updated).
Going overboard on RAM is likely the cheapest future-proofing you can do on a machine when you buy it.
Ok fuck it.
Tell me why i shouldn’t go for this as my next daily driver after one MBP after another for over 15 yrs. I’m serious.
What are you going to use 64GB of RAM for?
