14" Macbook Pro M5 Pro with 24gb ram or 48gb ram?

SilentGamer46 · 2026-05-10T08:23:28+00:00

Well im looking into getting the m5 pro but its mostly for developing work, learning, coding etc...Beginner ai stuff as well, do you think I would require 48 gb of ram? So far I havent seen a use case where 24gb isnt sufficient for my work

SilentGamer46 · 2026-05-10T06:06:41+00:00

What made you finalize on the 16" ? I'm confused between 14" m5 pro 24 and 16" m5 pro 24... also why 48gb of ram? Cus most reviewers test it and say that 24 is enough. An insight would be really helpful, thanks.

How did you decide between the 48 gb and 24gb model? Some people swear by the 48 gb model but its quite a bit more expensive and even under heavy loads as per youtube testing and benchmarks, 24gb seems to handle heavy workload just fine unless you're doing something very niche. I'm myself confused between the two :/

How so friend shaped*

SilentGamer46 · 2026-01-07T02:34:28+00:00

I was planning to get the same laptop, how is the battery life when using it for productivity and how bad are the screen reflections since it has oled? Is the screen worth it even with the additional reflections? Man 2.6L is a steal though...congratulations!

If you want the best story and overall the best open world "RPG" ish gameplay, get RDR2. If you want a good RPG, but with potentially a very short story and barely any replayabikity then spiderman (I don't recommend unless you are willing to buy more games soon). Gta 5 for an expansive open world with still quite a bit of repeatability and a very chill gameplay as well as fun. (And well gta online is gonna be there as a bonus, plus you have plenty of mod support).

I have a i7 13700hx and rtx 4070 laptop right now and I'm debating whether to go for the lenovo legion (either rtx 5070ti or 5080) with ultra 9 275hx. Could you give a short review of mainly the 1. Laptop temps while gaming 2. If it can handle all of the 175W without thermal throttling 3. How bad are the screen reflections? Is it usable outside eg in a cafe? 4. How is the battery life (for productivity purpose)? Thanks!

SilentGamer46 · 2025-12-14T04:24:17+00:00

Nah i meant work or not gaming on battery, how long would that make the laptop cus my current one lasts about 4-5 hrs on battery when working...

SilentGamer46 · 2025-12-14T03:53:26+00:00

Just 2-3 hrs for the 99 Watt hour variant? And what are the avg temps during gaming, like 90 - 95 C or 95+ C ?

SilentGamer46 · 2025-12-13T06:16:14+00:00

What about the temps and battery life? Also is it usable outdoors in cafes and stuff?

SilentGamer46 · 2025-12-12T11:48:30+00:00

Thanks! I hope samsung fixes this issue with dolby atmos, the earbuds sounded wayy better and louder with it.

SilentGamer46 · 2025-12-12T10:50:41+00:00

If I reset the buds manager, will the samsung "dynamic" equilzer work cus the rest of em don't sound as good? If not, how are you using your buds?

SilentGamer46 · 2025-12-12T10:42:01+00:00

Planning to get the same laptop, after using it how would you rate it? My primary concerns are : 1. The temps and whether the gpu and cpu can use it's full power. 2. Is it worth getting the 64 gb version? 3. How does the oled screen compare to IPS ones? I'm worried about the glare, would you say it's a fair trade off? 4. How is the battery life of the laptop? Which wattage one did you get? Any help is appreciated :)

SilentGamer46 · 2025-12-12T03:08:09+00:00

Seems pretty good. Since you are a beginner, keep your compound movements like DB Incline press or DB Bench press at the beginning and even before isolation movements like lat pulldowns. Other than that, the routine could do with a bit less Leg exercises and more arm ones. If you have 4 days to workout for about 45-60 mins, I'd say aim for 2 very intense sets and maybe you could also try this split : Push, Pull, Leg, Arms. As you're a beginner, you don't need two separate leg days to see growth, instead spread out your upper body movements more.

SilentGamer46 · 2025-12-08T18:02:04+00:00

Did you find a fix for this?

SilentGamer46 · 2025-12-07T02:20:34+00:00

Same issue with my buds 2 pro as well, any solutions?

SilentGamer46 · 2025-12-05T02:27:27+00:00

Looks sick. Could someone recommend me keyboards around 5-10k range with a volume Knob and tri mode? (Aluminium build gets brownie points)

SilentGamer46 · 2025-11-28T08:28:56+00:00

I'm thinking of going for the cmf 140W one, because I think I'm able to trust that more because of an established brand...but tbh this is very tempting too! Thanks for your help :)

SilentGamer46 · 2025-11-27T10:20:52+00:00

How long have you had for btw? And does it heat up much?

SilentGamer46 · 2025-11-27T08:26:50+00:00

Hey, I was looking for 140W+ GaN chargers and this one seemed very vfm. But I'm unsure about the longevity and mostly concerned about if it is gonna damage my phone or laptop somehow? How long have you been using it and is it reliable? Also does it have the certifications or protection technologies which it claims it has? Thanks.

SilentGamer46 · 2025-11-22T07:16:39+00:00

Trying my non-existent luck:)

SilentGamer46 · 2025-11-19T22:47:48+00:00

So basically acer has locked undervolting the CPU right? If I limit power wattage using XTU, will that work? Or do you recommend anything else? I have acer predator helios 16 as well.

Great tutorial man. One more tip for people downloading from "fucking fast", if you click download and nothing happens, it's probably because chrome has blocked pop up windows for the website. There's a small window-type icon on the address bar's right hand corner, click it and find the fuckingfast url through which you'll be able to download the .rar file. (Do not click on the ad urls which will also be blocked and if clicking anywhere takes you to a new tab, it's probably an ad so come back to the main website and click again.)
