Hi Everyone,
First: I only need advice on M1 Max performance.
I know the fact that Custom PC is a cheaper solution (I have one currently).
I will travel a lot in the next few months.
I want to buy a M1 Max 16'' with:
- 10 Core CPU
- 32 Core GPU
- 32Gb Memory
- 1Tb SSD
My current PC Specs:
- Ryzen 9 12-Core
- RTX2070 Super 8Gb
- 64Gb Ram
- 1Tb Nvme / 1Tb SSD
I wonder if 32Gb will be sufficient to run some simulations (Vellum, Fracture and Fluid)?
I'm in doubt regarding the 64Gb Upgrade (or not)
I know that.. there's never something like ''too much RAM''
But I wonder if someone had already did a try on Houdini simulations on a 32Gb M1 Max 16''?
Is it decent?
Are you able to work properly?
It's already a lot of money, and even if, when you spend 5000$.... 500$ upgrade could appears ''okay'', But I don't want to spend ''too much'' at the end. (I read myself again..Yeah.. 5000$(with taxes) is already .. a sh*t load of cash)
I don't work exclusively on Houdini, but also on Unreal, Unity, Substance, Blender.
Ps: At the end, this need to be my main (and only) computer
Thank you for your time!
Take care
EDIT:
For the same price (~5000$)
Do you have some very good (windows) laptop in mind? (at least 64gb RAM and very good GPU // Optimized for VFX)
