What type of MacBook?

[Riped]

I am thinking of purchasing a MBA later on this year but I do not know what type to get, 11" i5 with 8gb of ram or 11" i7 with 4gb of ram.

I will be doing a lot of word processing, very light video editing and playing games like Garry's Mod, Minecraft, and farming simulator.

PS: I will also be doing objective-c programming
(Xcode)

I think most people would recommend more RAM over the faster processor. Your first option is solid.

Also you should post your question here https://forums.macrumors.com/forums/54/, you will get more answers.

Ram

Personally I would stick with the i5 and max out the Ram. Currently running i5 with 8GB DDR3 Ram. No problems here.
