Help me out here!!

I'm considering between MBP 2.2 4gb ram and 2.4 2gb ram ( I'm planning to use it for rendering and make architecture 3d model) I don't know which one is better in limited budget

Thankyou:D
 
Get the 2.2, and be sure to upgrade the ram yourself. You won't notice the 2.2 vs. 2.4 difference unless you're constantly using 99% of *both* cores when you get your computer.
 
Buy 2.4 with minimum memory, then upgrade it yourself to 4 GB. Easier than turning the machine on.
 
i woudl second thata s well, get the 2.4 and whenevr you get a chance upgrade to 4Gb ram later and if you can you shoudl do it yourself with aftermarket ram save a lot of money...
 
Thank you to all of you guys. :D

My major considering is the ram of graphic card. I worry that if I bought 2.2 one there'd be any problem when i rendering in maya
 
I don t really know exactly ow that would be teh maya rendering, but teh way i look at it, is, i can upgrade Ram if i want to, i can't just buy more cpu power, ram i can..
 
I would...

go with the 2.4. As a graphic artist i always try to get the best processor and graphics up front. ram can always be added later when cash in your change jar.:D
