128GB RAM in an (expensive) 13" 2-in-1 is not for everyone (it even rhymes, so it must be true).
- Strix Halo memory bus width: 256-bit, up to 128GB RAM
- Medusa Halo (Strix Halo successor) (rumor): 384-bit, up to 192GB RAM
If Medusa Halo had up to 256 GB RAM, it could fit a decent real DeepSeek-R1 / V3 quant (not the fake "Distill" ones):
