Hi this might sound stupid but i have few questions,
1. The new spec of the macbook pro 15 is 2.0 GHz i7, I found it confusing since isnt that means a downgrade from my macbook pro 2010 model that has 2.66 Ghz i7?
2. Actually what is the need to have 2 graphic cards? My current macbook pro (2010 model) has 2 graphic cards, and the discrete one (NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M) currently always giving me a problem when I open graphic driven apps like photoshop, indesign, etc. Just wondering if I only have only the integrated graphic card, is it actually going to be better or slower for me to do graphic driven stuffs (Im a graphic designer and photographer)?
Im running OS X Mountain Lion, and recently I always get GPU kernel panic every time I run graphic driven apps. Brought it to apple service centre in my town and they said that my logic board is spoilt, repairing can cost me a brand new macbook pro, so Im considering on getting the new retina macs. But Im totally confused about the specs since first it runs 2.0 Ghz, and it only has one graphic card (15 model the lower spec, the higher one is kinda too expensive for me :/)
Would be really helpful if you guys can help me out in explaining my questions! Thank you so much!
