About to purchase a Macbook pro for Uni. I'm wondering if opting for the 2.2 Ghz and 16GB of RAM makes a big difference from the 2.7 Ghz i5 and 8GB RAM model. Mostly using for work and I'd like to be able to edit videos with FCP with ease. I know this post isn't quite right for /g/ but I would really appreciate your opinion.

editing professional videos requires more ram than speed
>editing videos on a laptop
Nice fucking joke.

Is that not viable?

You can wait until you get back to your room. No one needs to fucking edit videos in the middle of a lecture.

Assuming you mean a 13" model (because the 15" don't come w/ 16GB anymore unless refurbished)
Then take the lowest possible CPU and save your money.
The difference between the lowest i5 and highest i7 for those 15W ULV fuckers is a fucking joke.
If you get the 15" HQ ones, then it might be worth it, but for the 13" dual cores, better invest it in RAM/SSD.

Why don't you wait until September when the new MacBook Pros will be released, fäm?
