I am trying to decide on whether I should choose a 13" MBP with either the i5 or the i7 processor. (To get the most bang for my buck.)
Ideally I would also like to upgrade the RAM up to 8GB from the get-go.
My questions are,
1. If I choose the i5 processor and upgrade the RAM to 8GB, will it "act" the same as one with the i7 processor with 4GB?
2. Will the 8GB on the i5 be too much for it to handle (too big of a truck for a smaller engine)?
3. Should I choose the 13" MBP with an i5 processor and stock 4GB of RAM- and wait to upgrade both the RAM and processor in the future- which should I upgrade first, the RAM up to 8GB or the i5 up to the i7?
Thanks in advance for your help, guys!
