🎯 Best fit / Ideal workloads
This configuration is strong and is made for demanding, mixed CPU + GPU work. Some of the tasks it handles very well:
-
Video editing, color grading, post-production
- Editing 4K / 6K / even 8K video with effects, plugins, LUTs, multiple video streams.
- Smooth timeline playback, less lag with effects, better rendering/export times.
- Hardware video engines (ProRes accelerators, etc.) help speed up encoding/decoding.
-
3D work, rendering, visual effects
- Using tools like Blender, Maya, Cinema 4D, or rendering engines like Redshift.
- Ray tracing, shaders, volumetric lighting will benefit from the strong GPU power.
- Better performance when working with complex scenes.
-
Software development, especially with large codebases / containers / simulations
- Compiling large projects (Xcode, etc.) will finish faster.
- Running multiple virtual machines or Docker containers.
- Possibly doing machine learning / data science work: training or inference on smaller models locally.
-
AI / Large-Language Model (LLM) experimentation
- You can run or test reasonably large models locally given enough unified memory.
- Using the GPU and Neural Engine for ML workflows, on-device inference etc.
-
Photography / Graphic design / Large RAW workflows
- Working with many high-resolution RAW photos (50-60MP), applying multiple edits, compositing.
- Using Adobe suite, Affinity, etc., with many layers and edits open.
- Better responsiveness when using filters, denoise, etc.
-
Multiple external displays + connectivity heavy work
- Because M4 Max supports more external displays at high resolution.
- Useful for trading setups, video editing + reference monitors, big dashboards.
-
Longevity / future-proofing
- If you plan to keep the laptop for 4-6 years or more, this setup gives headroom.
- As software and tools get more demanding, you’ll be less likely to “max it out”.
