Overall this combination makes it a great workhorse on the move. SSD - the way it's done here it's not only good, it's stellar fast and there is legitimately nothing as fast as what they have here with direct PCIE solder. Trackpad - absolutely huge amazing trackpad. I have 2018 15inch with Touch Bar - base model I7 2.6-4.3 with 16GB ram 560X and 512 SSD.Ĩth gen CPU finally made this 6/12 cores jump and this shows, really can throw everything at it and there is no shortage of power there. am I paying a 20% premium on a part for a 200% improvement or a 10% improvement? I'm all about value, so I'm really interested in quantifying the differences. What's the current thoughts on video cards? Do I splurge, or are we still in the 'premium pricing' timeframe for the Vega cards? That's good, but I'll hold this laptop for another 5-6 years. The 560x is green for all but 4k, and the Vega is green for everything. Is 16GB of RAM still enough, or should I jump to 32?Īnd finally, is the Radeon Pro Vega 20 significantly superior to Pro 560x? I used the computer games on laptops check, against Civ6, and my current card is green for low and medium. Is the i9 chip that much better than the i7 that's offered? Is the i7 enough of an improvement over what I have currently to buy it? I tried to look at the Tom's GPU hierarchy, but didn't see the chips offered by Apple listed. But I just don't know enough about about the new chips, graphics, and RAM to make an educated decision about the new MacBook Pro's. The SSD I'm comfortable is enough of a jump to make it almost worth it by itself. Rare video conferencing, semi regular Skype calling, a lot of. This is my work computer, but I log onto Dungeons and Dragons Online, Forge of Empires, and Civilization 6 every so often. It was pretty close to top of the line when I bought it. I have a 2013 Macbook Pro, Intel core i7, 4 core, 2.6GHz, 16GB DDR3 Ram, 1 TB non ssd drive, NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M.
