Comment on Even Apple finally admits that 8GB RAM isn't enough
balder1991@lemmy.world 6 days agoIn this particular case the RAM is part of the chip as an attempt to squeeze more performance. Nowadays, processors have become too fast but it’s useless if the rest of the components don’t catch up. The traditional memory architecture has become a bottleneck the same way HHDs were before the introduction of SSDs.
You’ll see this same trend extend to Windows laptops as they shift to Snapdragon processors too.

People do like to downplay this, but SoC is the future. There’s no way to get performance over a system bus anymore.

If you actually watch past the first minute of the video, they explain that LPCAMM solves that problem…
