Hey everyone,

I am planning to buy a 16" MBP soon. I'm going to start editing videos on FCP in 4k/1080p for youtube and for local businesses. I'm not really a professional video editor just yet, but I'm going to be doing this work everyday. I have looked at a bunch of reviews and different forums with all kinds of options, so I'm kind of lost lol. I'm looking for a laptop that's durable and handle 4k video editing without plenty frustration. I am stuck between these two options, but feel free if I should get something else.

1. MBP 16" i7 processor/ 16GB RAM/ 5500 8GB AMD/ 512 SSD ($2599)
2. MBP 16" i9 processor/ 32GB RAM/ 5500 8GB AMD/ 1TB SSD ($3299)
