Steven Kenzer Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on a new 15" MacBook Pro and wondering if the forum could help me in terms of what upgrades are worthwhile to this laptop. . I'm currently running 2017 on a new 27" "souped up" iMac and all is well on that end. I would be adding a display to the MacBook Pro, perhaps the LG 4K although wondering about other recommendations for the secondary display. This is not for heavy architectural work but complex furniture design, 3d and 2d. I'm currently looking at: 2.7GHz quad core Intel Core i7 processor/Turbo Boost up to 3.8GHz. Would I noticeably benefit from the $200 upgrade on the processor 2.9GHz/3.8GHz? Radeon Pro 455 with 2gb memory. How much of a difference to go to the $100 upgrade to the Radeon Pro 469 with 4gb memory? Any issues I should be aware of with this laptop in terms of interacting with 2017? Is its limit of 16 MB of ram an issue for anyone? Thanks in advance for any help/advice on this subject. Edited March 25, 2017 by Steven Kenzer Quote Link to comment
