How would you upgrade the rMBP non TB?

[Dalskov]

I will be using my upcoming rMBP for things like web browsing, e-mails, stream movies/watch Netflix, work (Excel, Word, PowerPoint etc) and play Hearthstone. Nothing hardcore. I'm sure I won't be using the touch bar, so I've decided to get the non touch bar version.

I need your opinion on me getting the base model or upgrading the ram and storage. Or just the ram? What would you do?

Thanks for your time and inputs.

Agreed - it's a lot cheaper in the long run and on average you end up with better laptops because you can update more frequently
