This MacBook Air deal stands out as a strong value for the 13.6 inch M5 model with 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD, especially versus the 256GB version at the same price. The larger storage is paired with the M5 chip, and the upgrade path is described as giving the same 10 core CPU and GPU setup. Costco also adds a 90 day return window and a free second year warranty, with price adjustment support and some card or membership rewards available. The main drawback is that the base warranty is shorter than AppleCare, and higher storage or memory configurations climb quickly in price.

Does costco only carry the 10-core gpu variant in the 24gb + 1TB units? Are the 16gb + 1TB units also 10-core gpu?
Yes, choosing more RAM or storage gives you two more GPU cores (10) on the base 13" MBA for $200 more; it comes standard with 10/8 CPU/GPU cores. The 15" MBA comes standard with the 10/10 CPU/GPU chip.

$900 is pretty much BIN price on the base 13". If you need more RAM or storage on this, upgrading one step up gives the most bang for the buck, albeit still pricey. The alternative is getting the 15" for $1100 (when on sale) at 512GB/16GB 10/10-core configuration.

Yes, you'll get the 10/10 (cpu/gpu) chip if you upgrade storage or RAM from the base model.

Looking at the 24GB memory & 1TB option, is $1299 a good price to pull the trigger or worth the wait? Is this close to the historical low price?

If base is 16GB then I don't think so unless you have storage constraint at 256GB

I did - with RAM and SSD prices going crazy, seems like it only a matter of time before prices go up.
