Memory
We recommend 16GB for most users.
Storage
We recommend 512GB for most users. People that work with high resolution images or videos may need more.
GPU
Some of Apple's models can be configured with faster GPUs that can make apps like Photoshop, Lightroom and Premiere run faster, but have no effect at all on most apps. Let us know if you need a custom configuration.
