Apple to occupy 90% of TSMC 3nm capacity in 2023
The article quotes 36gb of ram for the m3 MacBook pros. Which made me wonder: why do we use power-of-2 gb ram configurations? If apple does 12/24/36, is that reasonable, or is there a reason not to?

DDR5 supports non power of 2 sized modules. You can find 48GB DDR5 modules, for example.
