prob just wait, bc you can either get the m4, or you will be able to get the m3 for cheaper

i just wanted to get a new MacBook Pro since the one i have (MacBook air m1) works great but i need more storage and RAM.

a great option is to always buy second hand or refirbished

should i get high RAM or High Cores CPU for the MacBook Pro

i could totally be wrong

#

well it all just depends on what you prioritize, look at benchmarks and things for the different processors, and you know how much ram you need bassed off of what you dont have

#

also your budget for it is prob the biggest factor you have to account for

#

how much ram do you have now?

shell temple
#

8gb

low jungle
#

shell temple
#

low jungle
#

what is your budget?

shell temple
#

low jungle
#

#

i dont do anything that you do tho, for the most part

#

mostly games, and its really bad at it bc the windows graphics drivers for this gpu are shit

low jungle
#

you can splurge and get a decent upgrade on both, or you will have to decide which is more important to you
