MacBook Neo 심층 분석: 벤치마크, 웨이퍼 경제학, 그리고 8GB 도박

MacBook Neo delivers impressive single-core performance on initial tests but reveals critical thermal constraints within 60 seconds of sustained load, degrading performance by 87%. The combination of fixed 8GB RAM and the A18 Pro's limited memory bandwidth creates a fundamental bottleneck that makes the device suitable only for short-burst tasks like quick compilations or photo editing, not sustained development work or video rendering. This exposes the cost-cutting trade-offs Apple made to achieve the $599 price point, where design limitations significantly impact real-world user experience beyond marketing benchmarks.
