Hello guys,
I need help with choosing the right MacBook Pro for me and would love to get some insights from you guys.
I will mainly use it for editing 1080p videos in Final Cut Pro and Premiere and export them to Instagram (regular video posts and IG TV) and sometimes YouTube. I will eventually edit 4k videos for my client but not that often as I find the workflow for shooting and editing 4k videos is too much work and time-consuming for me lol.
If I was to get the 16", which specs are important to upgrade? For example, 6-core vs 8-core or i7 vs i9 processor or 16gb vs 32gb vs 64gb memory or graphics card AMD Radeon Pro 5300M with 4GB vs 5500M with 4GB vs 5500M with 8GB?
I was thinking about this config 6-core, i7, 16GB memory and AMD Radeon Pro 5500M with 8GB? Thoughts? Since I am mainly working with FCP and sometimes Premiere, what is the most important spec that I should upgrade? The graphics card? Also, will 16gb memory will be efficient?
I have a 15" 2016 MacBook Pro with the following specs:
Processor: 2.7 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory: 16GB
Graphics: Radeon Pro 460 4 GB
This works fine for me but somehow I still find it pretty slow in exporting long videos, especially in Premiere.
I've been doing more editing and exporting recently so I want to save more time and upgrade to the 16"
Please let me know what you guys think and any input will be appreciated!
Thanks,
Tri
