2019 MacBook Pro hardware options - best for Pro Tools?

Hi!

We need to buy a MacBook Pro for a Sound Technician's Course and Pro Tools will be the software used. Been doing some reading and wondering about the configuration options...It'll be the 15 inch 8-core i9 unit:

What options would you rank from most to least likely to affect performance?

Processor
2.3 GHz. boost to 4.8 vs 2.4 GHz, boost to 5.0

Memory
16 GB vs 32 GB

GPU
Radeon Pro 560X vs Radeon Pro Vega 16 vs Radeon Pro Vega 20

I'm thinking of maxing out the processor and the RAM and keeping the base GPU.

Does that sound reasonable?

Thanks!
