Hi
putting aside the fact that Geekbench says my new 13 inch is a 16 inch the scores are below. Background info.
I used migration assistant to set up the new Mac. The new Mac is still only in the first 12 hours so no idea if that means there is background tasks going.
Both have 16GB of ram
2Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1038NG7 CPU @ 2.00GHz
1222 Single-Core Score
4454 Multi-Core Score
Open CL Score of 8387
2018 i7 -8559u 2.7Ghz
1053 Single-Core Score
4401 Multi-Core Score
OpenCL score of 8081
In real life day to day usage of web browsing, Lightroom and photoshop use not sure I will see a real difference. But I didn't buy the BTO maxed out I was originally going for and therefore saved money to get the new machine with a keyboard that is genuinely so much better than the 2018 version.
From a "Man maths" perspective which is how I started this thread this is where I ended.
Sold
Sonos sound bar *2= £605
Macbook 12 inch *2 & iPad Pro 9.7 = £970
Occulus rift = £300
Total sold so far = £1,875
Bought
MacBook Air £910
MacBook Pro £2000
Total = £2,910
Leaving me with a deficit of £1,035
I have an offer for the 2018 MBP for £840 so total deficit = £195. Now that works in my book
If the other half challenges then my simple answer is to see that is what you spend on a pair of shoes.
thanks again all.
Josh
