As of now I’ve been working on my 2018 macbook pro, and with it’s 8 gigs of ram, I’m very limited. I’m ready for an upgrade, wanting to build. a pc what parts do I need?
Hello, Welcome to the Forums.
First, I’d see if you can close any apps that are using up your RAM on your Mac. (Could be as easy as closing web browser)
For general PC specs:
RAM: Minimum 16GB, Recommended 32GB (You can start with 16 and easily upgrade if you have extra RAM slots)
Storage: SSD maybe supplement with a 7200RPM Mechanical hard drive (HDD) if you need a lot of extra storage and have a tight budget.
CPU: any ~200$ CPU should be excellent.
GPU: since you are developing for ‘mobile’ this may be less critical, but for any modern PC I’d recommend at least a 3060. (But GPUs are also easy to upgrade, so you could probably go as low as a 970 if you don’t care about Lumen/Nanite (non mobile features) and are not playing new PC games)
