[Extreme choice] MacBookpro M4 32G + 512G and MacBookpro M4Pro 24G + 512G, how to choose for the same price?

I'm going to take advantage of this 618 to buy a new Mac. After reading a lot of community discussions on the whole network, I found that there is controversy about whether to give priority to CPU or memory. In summary, I recommend m4pro 24G accounts for 60%, and recommend m4 32G accounts for 40%. The gap is not particularly large. Actual price paid after JD.com's national subsidy: m4pro 24G, 14,214 yuan m4 32G, 13,699 yuan The two models are about the same price, on a budget. Still want to ask everyone, do you have any better suggestions? My situation: Front-end development, sometimes start 3 ~ 4 projects and open dozens of web pages at the same time. Here is the valuable discussion information I have read, and I hope to give you some reference: M4 32G vs. M4 Pro 24G, the price is about the same, how should I choose? _ bili bili _ bilibili https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1B3qVYYEJG/ The blogger of this video is recommending M4 pro, but the comments are questionable. @ Anonymous2628 The memory determines whether it can run or not, and the gpu determines how fast it runs. There is no situation where m4 can't run and m4pro can only run. It's just a little slower, but when the memory is insufficient, if it can't run, it just can't run. MBP 32G M4 vs 24G M4Pro-V2EX https://www.v2ex.com/t/1086885 @ Anonymous2629 Personally, I feel that the M4 Pro 24GB will be better. I feel that it really needs such extreme tasks, and 8GB storage is not much different... In terms of GPU, the M4 is not as good as the M1 Pro, and the GPU of the M4 Pro is almost close to that of the M2 Max. Sometimes it is good to play games when you are bored, and the CPU also has a few more large cores. Multi-core is almost twice as good as the M4. Anyway, if it were me, I would have no thought about the M4 Pro. I feel that the 8GB gap can be ignored with this performance span. mbp finals M4 32 +512 or M4pro 24 +512? -V2EX https://www.v2ex.com/t/1114931 Most replies still recommend priority memory. M4 choose macbookpro m4 or M4 pro-V2EX https://www.v2ex.com/t/1093600 @ Anonymous2630 Both machines, I have tried them for 14 days +, I have the right to speak, let me talk about the premise, I am full stack, docker, py, node, ts, nextjs, etc. 1. The gap between 32G and 24G is not obvious. The memory bandwidth of m4pro is very large and the scheduling is faster. Although 8g is less, swap can make up for it. Anti-bar: the gap is not obvious 2. Operating efficiency, obvious improvement, it obviously feels that the m4pro will open faster 3. Fan, m4 is single, m4pro is dual, m4 will be noisier than m4pro when doing heavy work, and the threshold is relatively low, it is easy to start, and it has many more sensing times than m4pro, m4pro basically has no sensing 4. Compared with 24g m4pro, 24g m4 is 2500 more, the overall performance is improved by nearly 80%, the memory bandwidth is improved by nearly 130%, and the scheduling efficiency is much higher. The friend above said that memory will fight for the future. Can Thunderbolt 5 also fight for the future on the expanded hard disk? There are also 32g that can be raised, 24g can still be raised, the sense of boundaries is not that high, and the m4pro memory efficiency is higher mbp finals M4 32 +512 or M4pro 24 +512? -V2EX https://www.v2ex.com/t/1114931 Priority memory. M4 32G vs M4 Pro 24G-Which To Choose? : r/macmini https://www.reddit.com/r/macmini/comments/1gt48fr/m4_32g_vs_m4_pro_24g_which_to_choose/? tl = zh-hant Unless you want to do large-scale LLM processing or professional-grade drawing work, 24GB is definitely enough. Even 16GB can be used for several years on Mac, and 24GB gives you more peace of mind. Are you going to take it? I think 24GB should be enough to do most things. I will tend to choose the faster one with TB5. I think 24GB is enough. The M4 Pro is super strong enough, dare I say it. M4 32GB vs M4 pro 24GB: r/macmini https://www.reddit.com/r/macmini/comments/1htd8hm/m4_32gb_vs_m4_pro_24gb/? tl = zh-hant In your situation, I'd go with the Pro version and then a little less RAM. I think computing power is more important for you. The Pro version can be used for a while. And it has Thunderbolt 5, so when you add an external hard drive, it will be much faster than the basic model. Like you, I bought the base version of the M4 Pro (Christmas present). The silence of this thing hasn't gone wrong yet. Love it so much. I will never use a headback again. I've been a Windows powder all my life. I used a Mac when I took a graphic design class 20 years ago, but finally returned to Windows. Now the Win11 shenanigans have pulled me back into the world of Apple. I will always stay here! Pro won't go out of style for a while. Plus, it comes with Thunderbolt 5, so when you add external storage, it's much faster than the base version.
