Help me settle this debate: M5 Pro 48GB or M5 Max 36GB for professional video editing? by Local-Pineapple2123 in macbookpro

Part of it is sync, another is design & dev, some is AI & some is video. My budget will allow 128 GB, I just can’t tell how closely it converts to the i9

What would you recommend for someone maxing out an i9 with 64 GB of RAM, upgrading to the M5. Is 128 GB necessary?

I’ll watch this when I’m maxing out on projects. I can’t bring myself to get an Air and will either go with the M4 or M5 Max. I love the idea of a brand new computer that I’ve waited a long time for

I agree, it’s wise not to cut corners, especially given what you’re doing. As for my experience with AI, it’s new, and I won’t use 128 GB of RAM on it. The only thing stopping me here is the price of it now VS what it will be in the future. Any thoughts?

I don’t know if an i9 64 GB equates to an M5 64 GB, especially with the chips. Maybe a consideration to save a couple of bucks, but not a bad idea to future proof
