MAC MINI M2 PRO VS M1 MAX 32 ram 1 T SSD?

[sarahjanelyon]

What would be better a better purchase for Lightroom classic photo editing: Mac mini with M2 pro chip & 32 ram & 1 T SSD. OR M1 Max chip - base with same ram & SSD?  I am an amateur & frustrated with performance of current windows laptop & in dire need of upgrade - so new to Mac

A major player these days is the GPU and integrated memory. Less so, I believe, than M1 vs. M2. So play your spending on that; GPU and memory.

You'll find a series of videos comparing the various M1/M2 configurations. All use LrC, LrD and Capture One when making the comparisons.
