My daughter is studying graphic design in college now and is currently struggling with a 5+ year old MacBook Pro as we are waiting for the new version to come out...hopefully this month.
She uses the Adobe Creative Cloud suite or other graphic/photo touch up products to design static images. She doesn't edit videos or play games but does watch media streaming services and you tube. I am trying to decide if she would benefit from a dGPU or not. If the speed improvements from a dGPU are not material I would probably pass on it to avoid the possibility of hardware/heat issues down the road.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as my goal would be to place an order the day the new products are available but I need to sort through the iGPU versus dGPU issue first.
