I feel like the one test that would really show you the difference between having a 8 Gb or 16 GB of RAM is using multiple apps at once. I don't do any video editing, but in my game development workflow, I'm generally running at least six or seven different applications at the same time and I was constantly maxing out my memory when I had only 64GB of ram. I recently upgraded to 128 GB because the memory was on sale and I've only come close to maxing it out once on the new 2020 iMac.

@jackjohnson83933 жыл бұрын
You cannot expect the performance of a system to increase when it has already enough memory available: the benefits of going from 8GB to 16GB of RAM should be demonstrated using a benchmark in which the amount of available RAM is identified as the bottleneck. In the Geekbench 5 CPU test, although the amount of "free" memory is low, there is a high amount of "cache" memory. Cache memory represents files that have been recently accessed and are stored in RAM for future, fast, access. This memory can be liberated and made available to applications whenever the amount of "free" memory is no longer sufficient. In other words, having a low amount of "free" RAM doesn't necessarily indicate a memory shortage. The important metric here is the "Pressure" which is roughly is equivalent to (Wired + Used) / Capacity. I have no doubts that 16GB of RAM would provide a significant performance increase for use cases that are memory hungry and not CPU bound. Great video nevertheless!

Totally agree. Some of these videos were the reason I purchased one. I am a long time windows user and last year thought about switching to Mac for development reasons. However when Apple announced their own chips, I was convinced I wouldn’t touch them ever, as I remember PowerPC from years ago. When I saw these videos showing the actual performance comparisons I realized my thinking was wrong and this bandwagon was moving much faster than I ever dreamed it would. Maybe I’ll be proved wrong in the next couple years, but the more videos I see like this the more I think being an early adopter may not get me in trouble this time :)

@@geraldbaria The big difference between iOS and Mac OS, is that on iOS you only run a single app at a time, meaning it has all ram available for a single app. On a normal computer it's very common to have multiple apps running. The 8GB swaps A LOT and even though the SSD is fast, ram is MUCH faster.So if you're the type that only has a couple of tabs open in your browser, sure get the 8 GB. But if you like have a lot of apps running, loads of tabs in your browser etc. The 16 GB will be a much better option...and I guarantee you will be able to feel it. This test is attacking from a performance perspective which is rarely the point of ram(unless you workload is very restrained), it's about being able to run a lot of stuff without swapping. Swapping should always be avoided if possible.

Very nice testing guys, really good job. However, I have one big favor for all tech reviewers out there: Please create these RAM tests (or any stress tests) like you would use these machines in the real life. TLDR: "More Apps Running while Testing", Why? - I work as a Designer and for that, I need to have open at least 3 Apps simultaneously (Photoshop for creating and editing photography, Illustrator for icons, Xd for prototyping etc.) plus chrome/safari while working on the project or managing projects and I am not even counting cloud services (dropbox, drive, CC files, etc.) as they also have an impact for overall RAM usage. So the One app, the 8Gb model may seem "just fine" but in the real world, it would be obliterated with the 16Gb model. I understand that you can't simulate every possible scenario for every person who would be using these machines but I hope you get a general idea of what I was trying to say. You are also creators and you know how it is so I am not trying to undermine your work, just pointing out how am I seeing these tests and expressing my real-life experiences. Keep it up Max Tech.

Absolutely. I was hesitant, but believed all the reviewers hyping that you're ok with 8gigs (never had Mac before). Well it didn't take too much time to notice that ie. using Fusion 360 and having Chrome open with tabs at the same time and it's close to it's limits already. Heck I build my desktop pc with 32gigs, just cause memory was at the building time really cheap. Going back to the 8gig model, I had free F-secure license and decided to throw it at my Mini and well, at multitasking I very often already began to hit memory limits and actually removed F-secure to have more memory for my tasks. My take is that if you do anything else but browse and do ie. spreadsheets at the same time. Absolutely and definitely go for 16gigs. 8 gig model is something like 3 programs at worst to have open simultaneously. I don't want to kill my drive with swapping.

@@mmdday your theory is what this video disproves. Many of the test on 8gb shows very high memory pressure and that it was accessing swap memory alot. But the results barely change. Whatever apple’s doing with the memory organisation and architecture is making a big difference.
@mmdday3 жыл бұрын
@@johanaziz That's because you don't know how to read the memory stats. *Most* of the tests weren't even close to using most of the RAM. Much of the RAM is occupied by the cache, which can be thrown away and is not part of app memory. And in fact, this probably explains a lot of the performance difference in tests that don't use much memory (compiling in xcode), because compilation is heavy on the disk, and the loss of file cache on the 8GB explains why it's slower (but only slightly). Please don't comment if you dont understand how this works. Think about it, no app is going to use 8GB of memory, because that would make it impossible to run at all on lots of machines.

Barefeats website have made a comparison between intel i7 with EGPU (RX 5700 XT) and M1.... Of course the intel with EGPU win big anytime except for finalcut pro (almost the same speed). I think latest Macs with Intel could be a bargain since no one understand it's real value and how powerful it is... Probably a lot of persons will sold their intel macs at low price on ebay just to get the newer macs with M1... LOL

@@Gmon750 to make that comparison with actual data using real world testing in apps. If nobody benchmarks vs eGPU nobody can say what you just said, mate! Also some people have eGPUs paired with intel minis and might be wondering if they can lose the eGPU and go with a new mini. Lots of us want to know, I was about to buy i7 mini with eGPU but decided to wait a few months ago to see what the Apple Silicon brought. No way did I expect these speed gains… especially with stock onboard GPUs. Sure, I'm dying to see what comes next in the Apple Silicon mac range, but this is good enough to have me buying one today and happy to resell if i need to upgrade for more TB3 ports (that's a big downside for me, only two TB3 ports and only one TB controller/bus on these new macs, otherwise amazing value).

Actually just simple multitasking between applications is a factor. With 8gigs I'm having about 2-5 programs open at max. Obviously depending what applications used. But stuff like CAD program and browser can already max out 8gig models.

Thought experiment: Both the 16 and eight gig model Have their RAM used up by the intensive application. This means that there is a lot more swapping going on on the 8 gig model compared to the 16 gig model ! note: every time the RAM is used to completely the data or some data is written on the SSD. This way your SSD will age quicker by the way the 256 GB version quicker than the 512 because each sector will be re-written twice as often .So the question is would you take 512 GB SSD with eight gig or a 256 GB SSD with 16 gig?

I appreciate the effort that went into testing the two new machines. I would say however that it's obviously very media production oriented, it doesn't really address other types of work case scenarios. Perhaps media production is the most intense so it's more or less a valid test. But as I transition from being a media producer to being a project manager, I see myself opening more internet tabs, having a wider variety of programs open, and doing several very different types of work all at the same time. More RAM has been the bane of my work so I think it would still be better for me to opt for the 16GB, definitely more than a 10-15% improvement in my case.
