MacBook Pro 2016 - Which is the best choice?

You don't regret not having 16GB ram? -
MacBook Pro 2016 - Which is the best choice?
iKl9kca replied to iKl9kca's topic in Laptops and Pre-Built Systems
I think its not just MacOS but rather that i have the eco system already being in built with having an iPhone and an older macbook, my sister having the macbook air and herself and my mum having iPhone would make it easier continuing the ecosystem rather than getting something "like" MacOS. -

Dependant on your work load i guess - if you aren't a photo professional the SD card isn't missed per say. -

I heard they have issues and many people were disappointed in the performance GPU wise but i think that the new keyboard is really nice to type on like a mix of mechanical and chiclet - on the latter note i wanted a refresh and last generation seemed ... last generation both interms of lacking TB3 and the bigger mousepad seems really nice Yeah i guess the 13" model would make sense in this scenario as you described it, it seems logical. Are you sure - budget isn't a concern its more the "i work 6 weeks or i work 8 weeks argument" i don't mind working but i want to make sure i am making the right purchase, further more do you think the 15" serves a purpose for school and university so on and so fourth? i guess I'm a little hesitant on the 15" due to the lacking GPU but i'm not planning on gaming so thats not overly a concern as much. for around $6,299.00 it will feature the 2TB SSD if thats worth it? what do you think? -

Yeah i don't like windows laptops - i love desktop but i just can't for the life of me use windows laptops and i have tried with dell laptops and some other ones before but they just don't work for me like the macbook does - used my sisters AIR and now a old 2012 macbook pro and it works so damn well and just flow; thats just my opinion and experience with the macbook. No in fact they have a lot of programs that support it as such making it more ideal. -

So recently i decided i wanted to get the new APPLE MacBook PRO 2016 - my question is which is the best one to get; I live in New Zealand so the prices are quite hiked up - further more i do have a desktop being a GTX 1080 FE and a i7-6700K so i don't need that. I want something that will last me for two years of school and university and MacOS due to the nature of me already having iPhone etc. MacBook PRO 2016 13" TouchBar, 8GB Ram, 256GB i5 Dual core ~ $2999.00 NZD MacBook PRO 2016 13" TouchBar, 8GB Ram, 512GB i5 Dual core ~ $3,299.00 NZD MacBook PRO 2016 15" TouchBar, 16GB Ram, RX 455, 256GB i7 Quad core ~ $3,999.00 NZD MacBook PRO 2016 15" TouchBar, 16GB Ram, RX 455, 512GB i7 Quad core ~ $4,699.00 NZD Those are the options, is it worth the hike for the 15" model; i will be doing computer science and general school stuff along with programming. -
So i have around about a 1,000-1,300NZD Budget, I want to get a monitor mainly for gaming but I dont know if I should go ultra wide, if people could give me suggestions, I'm thinking a BenQ 35" 5ms 144Hz TN 2560x1080p (1,300$) or a BenQ 24.5" 1ms 240Hz TN (800$)

Sure, granted but that didn't explain the 970 preforming better at a resolution of 1920x1080 max presets vs my res and settings w/ a 1080, at this point do I just sell my GPU for maybe a 480 cause I'm still really disappointed because these are by no means bad parts

So I have a GTX 1080 and play rust CSGO and GMOD - Games that are DX9 based if I'm correct? So CSGO 4:3 1280x1024 Everything low hits 150-200FPS with a i7-6700 and Rust every low 1400x900 60-70 FPS whereas my friend with a i7-6700K and 970 has 150FPS Rust - 300-350FPs with settings higher on both games. Is my 1080 faulty? Do I just get a DX9/10 Based GPU? I'm so sad with my performance when I spent 3000$ I was expecting more what do I do?

Could I get the following image but put my face there and remove the beard or is that like imaginary shit in other words borderline impossible and if not what would be needed like a picture of me at the same angle?

What's the fastest, smallest, having the most range, wireless USB Adaptor?
-
Can someone make me a PC that would be best bang for buck with gaming in mind while being as cheap as possible providing the best FPS.
-
It's CPU intensive.... obviously you are ill informed
-
Are you trolling or being ignorant? Just because I have good specs doesn't mean it was for CSGO only, I play CSGO and expect higher FPS, I have my specs because I want to play other games in 4K, I wasn't asking your opinion for a different build for CSGO.
