Apple: what's wrong with just 8GB RAM?
Yeah, and solder it onto the board while you're at it! Who ever needs to upgrade or perform maintenance anyways?
They do make the most of it though. Soldered RAM can be much faster than socketed RAM, which is why GPUs do it too.
I think you mean unified (on-die) RAM can be faster.
Well, that too, but that’s not particularly common on laptops or GPUs. Even in Apple silicon it’s not the same die, but it is the same package.
