Mac mini M4 (2024)

https://t2m.co/SiliconMacBuyersGuide That budget? What I wrote stands (and I wrote the article for this subreddit) “I want the cheapest desktop – but it needs to be functional.” MacMini M4 (not Pro) @ $1,399• M4 Stock 10-Core• 32GB RAM• 1TB SSD• Three Thunderbolt Ports Seriously, don’t buy the botto

Upgraded my M1 Mac Mini with 8GB of RAM to an M4 Mac Mini with 16GB of RAM Definitely worth it, especially on sale

Dont get a fucking laptop if you are trying to maximize your budget. Get a Mac M4 Mini and spec it out with 32GB of RAM and the biggest SSD you can afford and go on with your life. The M4 eats up 4k 120FPS h.265 footage like it is nothing

The only reason do this is for the funsies. I scored one for $200 shipped, 12-Core / 64 GB / D300 in a bulk listing where it was a lottery for the GPU config, some people got D500s and D700s.

Normally I’d say go with the M4 Mac Mini Pro, but with 48GB RAM it’s a 12 core CPU, 16 core GPU machine for $1799. Blender will run better with more GPU (as well as RAM), a

Reliable brands are Beelink, Intel/Asus NUC, Apple Mac Mini, GMKtec, Geekom, and to some degree Minisforum. Within the $400 to $600 USD price range, are my recommendations: GMKtec K6 at $490 on Amazon. Ryzen 7 7840HS CPU and Radeon 780M iGPU, 32 GB of DDR5 RAM, 1 TB of SSD storage, and Wi-Fi 6E. Bee
