Available to pre-order now for shipping next week.

24" iMac with M3
<https://www.apple.com/imac/>

14" and 16" MacBook Pro with M3, M3 Pro, or M3 Max
<https://www.apple.com/macbook-pro/>

No idea why the iMac can't have M3 Pro or M3 Max, while the relatively
tiny MacBook Pro can ... seems like a rather silly limitation. :-(

Agreed. I would have ordered the M3 Pro and 48 GB of RAM.

How often do you want to repeat this?
No such thing. End of story. Would be the absolute overkill for your
needs anyway.

You have 0 idea of my needs.

And if you don't like what I write feel absolutely free to ignore me or
KF me.

If you can currently do your work on a 11 year old iMac a new iMac with
a M3pro and 48 GB RAM would be total overkill. Full stop.

Proving my point that you have 0 idea of my needs. Video editing is a
memory hungry task - pro studios go way above 24 GB.

I currently have 24 GB and ironically I could bump it up to 32 GB on
this computer... future always needs more.

One of my software projects is also memory hungry (large simulation) and
more RAM is good RAM.

And as mentioned in the other thread, RAM disks are often very useful
for faster rendering and format conversions and other file manipulation
tasks.

Further of course, it is part of future proofing the computer for my
habit of keeping computers for a long time.

My target in a new iMac was actually 32 GB, but Apple's choices in
memory seem to point at 24, then 48 GB memory sizes - so I would have
gone 1 level up. Not available with M3, however.

I may even build an external RAMdisk off the Thunderbolt ports.

So, don't go around telling other people what they don't need. You're
not qualified.
