I am a video editor, and I am pitting the M4 Pro Mac mini up against the M4 Max Mac Studio to see if I can even make use of the Studios extra power. Which one is better for my needs and can I even tell the difference when using them.
I tested CPU power, Final Cut Pro export speed, Lightroom batch exports and even blender 3d rendering. The M4 Pro has 24GB of RAM and the Studio has 36GB of RAM
