Honestly there is zero reason to buy an old Macbook Pro.
That and you're still stuck with the old screen, old battery and old processor. You aren't going to be able to beat the SSDs in the new MacBooks because they use PCIE. I do not believe you would get the same battery life if you were running windows off macbook hardware.Īnother consideration is that external GPUs are around the corner, and you could game from your macbook as long as you had a thunderbolt port with appropriate transfer speeds.
Keep in mind that the biggest reason macbook batteries last so long is because of the mac OS. Best of both worlds and it would cost much less than a brand new apple macbook. Swap the optical drive for yet another SSD that you can run windows off of. That way you could switch out the HDD for an SSD better than the stock SSD of the 2016 macbook pros, then use the HDD as external storage. You could consider getting an older macbook pro that still has an HDD and optical drive. is great for prodictivity, although dont expect to game on it (you can get a Razer core + GPu for another 1k to game lol) Ive got positive experience with MSI and Razer Laptops. 1080p screen also is a plus, and 4k screen is overkill IMO (in 4k you need UI scaling and sometimes it fucks up everything). Grab an SSD+HDD combo (at least 128 GB SSD), 950M or greater, 8GB of ram or more and i5 or more. Im a computer science (Computer engeneering) student myself, ive got a MacBook Pro that i use in class, run linux 90% of the timeĭepending on graphicall prowess, you can get something like
