Pretty sure it'd still drastically outperform every single other 8gb ram laptop out there though, perhaps even 3x faster. Not saying it shouldn't have a ton more ram though, 8gb on anything expensive is pretty rude.

Maybe if you compare CPU performance but most people only use it for web browsing and documents editing which is most averages laptop can do the same and maybe more because it's not running Mac OS
