Hey all!
I'm interested in getting my first Mac, the MacBook Pro 15-inch. It will be used primarily for home recording, video editing and a little bit of gaming.
I'm thinking of purchasing a MBP with the below configuration:
# 2.2GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7
# 8GB 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x4GB
# 500GB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200 rpm
# AMD 6750M
# MacBook Pro 15-inch Hi-Res Glossy Widescreen Display
Now my question is, should I go for the 2.3 i7 or not? What are the differences between those two? Do they both reach 3.4 GhZ on TurboBoost? Also, I've heard that the 7200RPM HDD is a bit noisy, so is it worth it?
Finally, do you know if MacBook Pros are good for recording? I mean, will I have latency issues?
Thank you in advance
