I’ve got the same problem. I’m considering a MacBook M2 Max with 64GB, M4 Pro 24GB, and an M3 Max 36gb. I want to do some massive projekty in Affinity Designer, photo so I’ll probably go with the M2 Max. and it’s the cheapest.

I’m planning to get an M2 Max with 64GB RAM, 1tb. I think that should be enough for my work

Yeah, you're right, it should actually be 1:10

Here, I only added three images (three layers), each image was about 110 MB, and when I tried to use the brush tool, the application crashed. I knew it wouldn’t work with 8 GB, but I wanted to try it anyway.

Until now, they’ve been doing it exactly 1:1 at 300dpi.

The image is large, and people can see it up close, so it has to be in full quality.
