I tried searching but there's still no forum search feature *shakes fist*, so if this has been asked a million times before don't yell at me. Its been a while since I kept up with all the newest components.
I'm off to college next year and will be needing a laptop. The cache is I need to use it for graphic design work and audio recording, so it needs a fast processor, the problem is I know nothing of the new i-cores. It would be great if someone could let me know what turboboost does and how the different i-cores stack up to one an other. For instance, is it worth the extra money to get an i7 and how does the best i3 compare to a lower i5.
Also, how much RAM do you think I'll need? I was thinking 4/6gb, is 8 overkill? Well, any help will be greatly appreciated.
