MacBook Pro M2 Max feels lol, it's got a lot of power in theory but almost no software puts it to use.

I make use of my 16gb m1 by just never closing anything, ever. I have photoshop, 3 browsers, discord, and Shogun 2 total war open in the background. I feel like I'm getting my money's worth this way.

Same. I don't have a problem using all the RAM and CPU cores with virtual machines but it almost never happens. It's optimization that's the problem, and graphics optimization specifically. 38 cores in the GPU but because none of it gets used effectively Civ 6 on ultimate still makes the fans spin up lol
