I'm about ready to pull the trigger on a 13' Macbook pro without touchbar.

Question: Does anyone see a reason to upgrade to the 2.5 GhZ i7 processor (instead of the stock 2.3 Ghz i5)?

On geekbench, the stock processor (dual) scores 8820, and the upgraded i7 processor gets only 8826.

Apple - MacBook Pro 13.3' Refurbished Laptop - Intel Core i5 (I5-8279U) Processor - 8GB Memory - 512GB SSD (2019 Model) - Space Gray Model: 5V972LL/A SKU: 6421415. The 13-inch Macbook Pro comes with Touch Bar, and fast Intel core i5 or i7 processors. Choose between Space Gray or Silver. Buy now with fast free shipping! May 11, 2020.

So if that is the difference, it seems totally negligible and not worth it. Is that score the best representation of the power/speed of the machine? Is there anything else to consider? Does 'threading' really make any difference?

Background: I will use this for Logic with a lot of soft synths and occasional video editing (HD but not 4K). My main concern is price and getting something that lasts as long as possible. I plan on getting one of the two, and will definitely also pay for the RAM upgrade.


Thanks for any advice!
