so. difference wasn't 600$ worth 
MB limitations? its def to have 4 ram slots on mb. so you go and get four 8 gb modules and here you go - 36 gb or ram. now you can buy mb that also support 2 processors - add two of i9 extreme and you'll be running all the stuff that comes out in next 10 years 
thou it might be more expensive than mac at that point... |
I am not going to get into the debate with the upgrade. I mean, you said it yourself, there is a limitation, and its not as harsh as MAC, but a limitation nevertheless
You can't compare it base on FPS. API support is different, and FPS is highly dependent on the GPU. Higher speed ram does virtually nothing in this case. Proper performance profiling needs to be done to truly compare performance. Then there is also profiling test around CPU and memory utilization for specific apps, in which case, architectural design of the hardware plays a big role. The fact that the southbridge is talking to real hardware on the MAC will make a huge difference as it reduces CPU cycles from talking to the driver
You are talking about the old unibody macs from Apple II era....
