The numbers for these studio systems are super impressive. 87W under full load with the ultra. That’s less than average idol power use of a desktop 8th gen Intel K series chip (it can dip to 45W, but not often).
If I didn’t need a windows desktop for things I do, I’d get the entry level Studio in a heartbeat. Of course the storage not being user expandable is a pain, typical Apple move of course. You could have a super clean setup, but instead you have to litter your desk with external drives.
