if you really want to know what kind of memory technology Apple will be using on the AS Macs, it is as simple as looking at the memory technology that they will be using on the iPhone 12. While people on this board like to indulge in fantasies of HBM2 and GDDRx, the truth of the matter is that it is a guiding principle of supply management is that you try and maximize volume of fewer parts, rather than buying X amount of one part, and Y amount of another part, and Z amount of a third part. Buying one part type allows for the cheapest price, and flexibility in allocating parts. Tim Cook is a manufacturing guy, and supply managemnt guy. He knows this stuff like he knows how to brush his teeth. Unless there is an overwhelming (not just good or compelling), he is not going to deviate from that. Apple will probably ship with 180-220M iPhones this year. The pricing for the RAM on these phones will be the best in the industry, by far. Why would you throw that possible cost advantage out for the AS Mac? And while there is speculation about GPUs being starved of RAM bandwidth, Apple will do what is cost effective, and still performs well, and that is piggy back RAM technology off of the iPhone.
