This or the M5 with only 16gb of RAM for $50 more? Processor vs RAM debate...

Probably ram will have a more limiting factor in the coming years, depending on use case.

50% more RAM on M4 is certainly better than M5 with 16GB even if you are using the GPU's advanced features.

RAM is about 30% faster on M5 and GPU is 30% faster. For local LLM fans AI models could be 3.5x to 4x faster. Base CPU is 20% faster. WiFi 7, Bluetooth 6.0 - all that make M5 worth the extra money. (Both base chips are TB4 - only M5 pro and above is TB 5).

For most ppl it seems the Amazon deal for M5 Air with 16/512GB for $950 + Amazon Chase 5% cb is better

Does anyone know know how the Costco additional 1 year warranty works with Apples extended warranty coverage. Meaning, you would have 2 years of coverage with the Costco extension. Could you then buy the 3 year Apple warranty (at the end of the 2 years), or do you have to buy it up front. Otherwise, it's just overlapping coverage. Thx.
