Max RAM for this CPU and GPUiMaximum stated capacity without changing the CPU or GPU configuration represented by this product. For integrated memory this is a purchase-time limit. For slot-based RAM it is the maker's supported upgrade limit.

64GB9Maker product pagesupport.apple.com/en-us/128108Read 7 October 2026Memory: Apple M5 Pro chip, 24GB unified memory, configurable to 48GB or 64GB. The separate chip upgrade is not required for the memory choices. This is a purchase-time maximum, not a later upgrade.18Owner's manualsupport.apple.com/en-us/127958Read 8 October 2026Row 11 lists logic-board assemblies with 15-core CPU/16-core GPU and 64GB RAM, including 512GB storage 661-63771/661-63772. This corroborates the 64GB purchase-time maximum without a CPU/GPU upgrade. Two board IDs describe each configuration without resolving Ethernet variants, so no motherboard_model is inferred.

36GB1Maker product pageapple.com/mac-studio/specsRead 10 October 2026The 32-core GPU M5 Max configuration has 36 GB. The published 48 GB, 64 GB and 128 GB options require the 40-core GPU and are excluded. The unchanged 36 GB maximum now has maker evidence instead of a misclassified review source.
