Neither, get a mid range laptop with a large SSD for the price of the macbook

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

Any particular reason? It tends to come at a hefty cost of overall performance.

How much were you going to spend?

What games do you want to play? 13" MacBook only have a DualCore CPU and might limit you in some games.

Using an eGPU on the internal screen is only possible with:

- Nvidia eGPU

- Intel graphics only MacBook

- Windows 8.1

 

Or is it for rendering?
