00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:06,720
Apple's new Macbook Pro an interesting device for sure but we've seen the

2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:11,360
criticisms that between the lack of an SD card reader its extremely limited

3
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:16,000
hardware specs considering who it's purportedly aimed at and an IO setup

4
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:19,960
that will leave the vast majority of people either reaching for adapters or

5
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:25,840
buying new cables altogether it just doesn't seem geared

6
00:00:23,080 --> 00:00:30,519
towards professionals at all and on the latest WAN Show we actually threw our

7
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:39,079
two cents into the pile every 13in MacBook Pro has no dedicated GPU

8
00:00:37,399 --> 00:00:42,559
I'm sold no one will ever need more than 8 gigs of RAM they don't even have dual

9
00:00:41,480 --> 00:00:47,280
they don't even have quad core processors no one needs more than two

10
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:51,920
cores Apple didn't bother to respond to our comments directly I guess Tim Cook

11
00:00:49,719 --> 00:00:56,199
doesn't watch the WAN Show for some reason but one issue has apparently

12
00:00:54,520 --> 00:01:00,879
generated so much discussion that Apple's Phil Schiller made an official

13
00:00:58,519 --> 00:01:06,280
statement to the verge defending their decision to limit the MacBook Pro to 16

14
00:01:03,719 --> 00:01:11,560
GB of RAM they claim that putting more than 16 gigs of fast RAM into a notebook

15
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:15,960
design at this time would require a memory system that consumes much more

16
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:24,920
power and wouldn't be efficient enough for a laptop but how much battery does

17
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:24,920
RAM use is this a valid defense let's

18
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,840
investigate

19
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:39,720
cooler Masters masterc case maker 5 features their free form modular system

20
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:44,640
allowing you to customize adjust and upgrade make it yours at the link below

21
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:48,040
Apple will have to forgive me when I immediately raised an eyebrow like

22
00:01:46,399 --> 00:01:51,920
Dwayne The Rock Johnson although I can't do it nearly as well when they announced

23
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:57,280
that not only would their base configurations max out at 16 gigs but

24
00:01:55,560 --> 00:02:02,960
that you wouldn't be able to upgrade it later on consumer stuff I find thisp

25
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:05,000
type of locking down less offensive but

26
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:09,800
they're doing a lot of stuff that just seems to be designed to make their

27
00:02:07,159 --> 00:02:15,640
Hardware less repairable and more disposable I mean MacBook Pro batteries

28
00:02:12,319 --> 00:02:17,560
are glued to the case and this situation

29
00:02:15,640 --> 00:02:23,480
is no different with the memory it's soldered onto the logic board Apple's

30
00:02:21,319 --> 00:02:26,519
official explanation was that a memory system with more than 16 gigs of RAM

31
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:32,680
would draw too much power from the laptop like I said earlier but is that

32
00:02:29,239 --> 00:02:35,280
really true is 32 GB really too much for

33
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:39,800
a mobile platform to handle well especially considering many MacBook Pro

34
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:45,200
buyers are professional content creators or Chrome users who might actually make

35
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:48,599
use of all of that memory to find out we looked at the power consumption of

36
00:02:46,599 --> 00:02:53,239
different memory configurations not just in a laptop but in a desktop as well

37
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:59,200
just to dive a little bit deeper our Benchmark on all tests was 5 minutes of

38
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:01,640
the memory stress test only in Ida 64

39
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:08,799
extreme for our first test we use 8 gig 6 of Corsair Vengeance lpx ddr4 on our

40
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:11,560
usual test bench in 816 and 32 GB

41
00:03:08,799 --> 00:03:16,239
configurations there is a 20 wat Delta in our highest and lowest amounts of RAM

42
00:03:13,920 --> 00:03:21,720
but was this due to more gigabytes or more RAM sticks so we put our two sticks

43
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:28,280
of corser lpx against four sticks of AD data xpg ddr4 since the a data sticks

44
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:31,640
were only 4 gigs a piece both setups

45
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:34,080
came in at a total of 6 GB of RAM the

46
00:03:31,640 --> 00:03:38,439
four sticks drew a little bit more power but not much more as there was only a 5

47
00:03:36,599 --> 00:03:42,720
watt difference we also looked at how different RAM voltages affected power

48
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:50,319
consumption putting up two sticks of our 1.2 volt corser lpx against two sticks

49
00:03:46,159 --> 00:03:52,560
of 1.35 volt Corsair Dominator as with

50
00:03:50,319 --> 00:03:56,680
our other tests we made sure to turn on XMP profiles to make sure they were

51
00:03:54,360 --> 00:04:02,439
actually drawing the voltages indicated on the box the 11 watt differ was

52
00:04:00,159 --> 00:04:07,360
definitely more than we were expecting all in all the differences between our

53
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:09,239
different RAM setups for desktop weren't

54
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:14,079
insignificant so is there really something to Apple's claim time to dig

55
00:04:11,959 --> 00:04:19,680
deeper so we switched over to an Acer Predator 15 laptop as it uses the same

56
00:04:16,759 --> 00:04:25,040
Sky likee Architecture CPU type and ddr4 RAM as our desktop test bench and then

57
00:04:22,479 --> 00:04:29,960
we paired it with crucial and apacer so dims that is laptop memory obviously we

58
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:35,080
would have liked to have test tested this on one of the new Macbook Pros

59
00:04:32,840 --> 00:04:40,479
themselves but thanks to its completely non-s swappable RAM this wasn't really

60
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:46,600
an option after testing one and two sticks of both 8 and 16 GB modules the

61
00:04:43,840 --> 00:04:51,440
difference in battery drain was almost negligible the difference between one

62
00:04:48,840 --> 00:04:59,280
stick of 8 gigs and two of 16 remember that's a total of 32 GB was only 105 M

63
00:04:56,479 --> 00:05:04,759
hours in each scenario the memory stress test drained about 4% of the Predator's

64
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:10,800
battery so there was no massive spike in discharge rate when we upped our system

65
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:13,520
to 32 gigs now admittedly this isn't an

66
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:19,680
Apples to Apples comparison as all the laptops laying around were ddr4 gaming

67
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:22,440
Windows-based models but thanks to JX

68
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:27,800
standards one ddr4 low power chip is less different from another than you

69
00:05:24,840 --> 00:05:33,919
might think which leaves us to wonder if raw power consumption of more chips

70
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:40,520
wasn't the issue what exactly did apple mean when they said more than 16 GB of

71
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:43,080
memory wouldn't be efficient enough for

72
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:48,039
a notebook Linus's theor is that using up more PCB space for memory chips could

73
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:52,440
have eaten into the internal space that Apple preferred to use for a bigger

74
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:57,919
battery johon thinks that's bull and speculates that it's a planned

75
00:05:54,039 --> 00:06:00,479
obsolescence move as for me I'm not sure

76
00:05:57,919 --> 00:06:04,919
what I do know is that the truth is out there and you should leave a comment

00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:07,639
thanks for watching guys this video is suck you know what to do but if it was awesome get subscribed hit the like

92
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:13,160
button or check out where to buy the stuff that we featured in this video on

93
00:07:10,039 --> 00:07:15,120
Amazon like laptops that have 32 gigs of

94
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:18,520
RAM also Link in the description is our merch store so you can buy cool stuff

95
00:07:16,919 --> 00:07:21,720
although I think this sweater is like sold out and not in our merch store and

96
00:07:20,319 --> 00:07:25,000
stuff but you know there might be another drop of those someday someone's

97
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:28,319
going to kill me cuz that's not actually going to happen but anyways don't worry

98
00:07:27,039 --> 00:07:31,520
about it also check out the community Forum which is linked down below and now

99
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:37,720
that you're done doing all that you're probably wondering what to watch next so check out this video which is teran's
