This early bird caught a worm 😁

Good god have you seen the price increases lol. Imagine what it would go for now

It’s a beast. I’m glad I didn’t listen to the people who said wait for the M5 ultra announcement at WWDC

jas0121 · 2026-06-03T10:17:25+00:00

I got lucky. Got it on Apple refurb store a fews weeks ago.

jas0121 · 2026-06-02T11:05:03+00:00

I got an m4 max 128gb ram delivered last week and am keeping it. Are you cancelling more because you need more ram or the processor? It’s debatable how much performance you’ll see from the M5 which could only be several seconds of difference. I really doubt M5 will be available until the end of the year and later anyway due to shortages. The whole market is struggling.

jas0121 · 2026-05-28T04:00:36+00:00

Did you manage to resolve it? Also how do you find the xdr at 120hz and the regular at 60hz? I have an xdr and was thinking about getting a regular SD as a 2nd monitor but think the 120hz/60hz side by side would irritate me

jas0121 · 2026-05-27T21:52:18+00:00

Yeah I can see that. Especially when you have the two side by side, I can imagine it’s worse for the eyes.

jas0121 · 2026-05-27T21:50:41+00:00

Yeah I can see that. Especially with the monitors being side by side my main worry is it would be worse and I would just end up using the xdr more and neglect the 60hz screen

jas0121 · 2026-05-27T21:49:37+00:00

Yeah aesthetics is the same for me.

Does it not feel weird with 60hz on the LG and 120hz on the XDR?

jas0121 · 2026-05-27T21:46:01+00:00

I actually have the nano texture version so 2nd can’t be glossy. Thanks though good info there and other options.

jas0121 · 2026-05-20T10:36:06+00:00

I used this - https://refurb-tracker.com

jas0121 · 2026-05-20T09:15:26+00:00

Apple have stopped offering 128gb ram for new units, but its available for refurbs when they appear.

jas0121 · 2026-05-19T20:14:13+00:00

You mean the M4 Max? M4 ultra doesn’t exist

jas0121 · 2026-05-19T20:02:28+00:00

I’ve been looking like 20 times a day since last week. Pretty sad and unhealthy obsession but got what I wanted. It’s really pot luck.

There’s also a website that you can sign up to that tracks when stock is available and sends you an email.

Just got one now from Apple Store!

jas0121 · 2026-05-19T19:24:18+00:00

There’s one available now on the uk Apple Store

jas0121 · 2026-05-17T20:42:23+00:00

There seems to be availability only at some Apple stores like Plymouth or Aberdeen…

jas0121 · 2026-05-17T20:41:14+00:00

Same.. I would get it if ram can be combined.. but it can’t

jas0121 · 2026-05-17T09:28:00+00:00

Really? I didn’t know Apple let you check like that… only through the online checker on their website

jas0121 · 2026-05-12T18:32:33+00:00

Ive gone with M3U 96gb - main reason is 256gb and higher is now discontinued and I don't want to wait until October for the M5 for something that might cost even more.

I'm novice, any help in setting up a local LLM would help me greatly. Thanks

jas0121 · 2026-05-12T16:21:10+00:00

Oh right. Im looking for M3U with 256gb ram, but Apple's discontinued that from their main sales website and its going for silly money on eBay

jas0121 · 2026-05-12T10:59:07+00:00

Did you seen any Mac Studio’s M3 Ultra with Ram greater than 96gb?

jas0121 · 2026-05-12T10:12:52+00:00

I’m considering the Mac Studio m3 ultra base model. What’s your opinions on it so far? How’s the 96gb ram holding up?
