Refurb 2012 MBP or new MBP?

Post by thebassist »

No more than 5 layers in Resolume/CoGe, but running Ableton as well... Needs to be bullet proof. Low resolution.

So which would you get? A refurbished MBP with a designated video card, or off-the-shelf current MBP without a video card? The current MBP with video card is out of my budget.

Thanks for your time and input.

CoGe is Mac only, and I use both.
