Hello,
I have a MPRO Late 2013 and I often run out of memory when using Photoshop + Illustrator + Chrome (sometimes even just 2 of them).
I know the RAM is soldered to the MB so I was wondering, what upgrade should I do to not have all the memory s**ked off?

Thanks :)

I find it strange that you're running out of a memory. Thats a relatively good configuration for that sort of work. Unfortunately, I think Chrome is the problem here. I also use Chrome, but I don't really keep a lot of tabs open when working in Photoshop / Ableton. From what I understand, Chrome is by far the most memory hungry web browser available. If you have a ton of tabs open, I would imagine that it would cause a problem when using more power hungry programs like the Adobe Suite (which really need the power)

I would recommend switching browsers (Safari or Firefox) as they've made a great deal of improvements over the years. I recently switched to Firefox and I don't have any complaints.
