Best MacBook pro 2021 specification for MATLAB so far?

Hi all,

I'm planning to get MPB M1 2021 but im still confused if should i go for 16g Ram or 32g Ram as when i read the reviews they seems almost have same performance? so can anyone gives the benchmark for those on the native version?

Are you comparing the M1 Pro (default 16 GB) to the M1 Max (default 32 GB) ? Or are you comparing the M1 Pro 16 GB to the M1 Pro upgraded to 32 GB ? Are you looking at the 16" ? The 14" (I think it is) can have the M2

Now I’m comparing MBP 16 inch with 16g ram with MBP 16 inch with 32 g Ram.

In that case, the benchmarks are not going to be able to tell the difference between them. Not until you start trying to use more than 16 gigabytes at the same timem, in which case you start benchmarking the behaviour of the operating system and hardware in managing memory overload.

i got you, but there is a way to figure that out? i did search but im not able to see that.

16 GB RAM and is powered by the 9th Gen Intel Core i7 processor? It's a powerhouse

it's M1 chip with 10 cores not Intel chip.
