new quad core i5 and Pro Tools
Just looking over a few speed tests the new quad core i5's that are in the newest batch of MBP computers seem to be a bit faster than my quad core i7 (mid 2017) computer.
Anyone have any experiences on these brand new laptops?

Re: new quad core i5 and Pro Tools
The new MBP are 64bit OS. Cant remember what PT 11 is but you may want to check this before you purchase.

Re: new quad core i5 and Pro Tools
Pro Tools 11 is 64 but, but that is not relevant here. It is basic OS compatibility if looking at a new computer (plan on running 2019.5).
Modern i5 are quite different than very weak i5 of ancient times, and likely quite usable... a higher core count i7 or i9 is obviously better. On the 13 MBP make sure you configure enough SSD and memory. |
