I've bought a 13" 2016 tMBP, and am waiting for it to arrive (22-19 Dec, UK).
It is BTO: 3.1GHz i5, 16GB RAM, 1 TB HD
My question (and concern) is whether I will be able to comfortably do any video editing on this machine?
I'm an artist by trade, and spend a lot of my time using Photoshop, Lightroom, Bridge, Photos, FCPX, and other image/video intensive apps.
However, portability is also of great importance to me, and I used to own a spec'd out MacBook Air (2011), which did the job (slowly, but adequately). Basically, is it worth paying for the graphics card in the 15", if I was relatively happy with the performance of my old Air?
And can someone explain what the difference between i5 and i7 is?
