Title says it all. I'm planning to get an M2 Mac Studio soon. Personally, I'm still coming to a decision on the following SoC & RAM options:

SoC:

M2 Ultra with 24-core CPU, 60-core GPU, 32-core Neural Engine
M2 Ultra with 24-core CPU, 76-core GPU, 32-core Neural Engine

RAM:

128GB
192GB

To current M2 Studio owners, how did you choose your specs and why? Also could you comment on real world performance with regards to your workflow(s)? Thanks! :)

The truly horrifying part about all of this is that the large corporations who are mostly responsible for greenhouse gas emissions are continuing to conduct business as usual. I'm doubtful anyone has the (political) will or ability to force them to stop...

I see so many posts complaining about ads but never enough posts about using an Ad Blocker. These take a minute to setup, cost nothing, and don't require you to spend time maintaining them. Let's make the internet/YouTube usable again!
