Hi Everyone,
Need some advice on the new MBP's. I currently have a 2015 13-inch (2.7 GHz Intel Core i5 with 16GB Ram). I use the laptop for day-to-day tasks but the main reason I'm looking at the new MBP's is that I use my computer for heavy Logic X use (primarily with Native Instruments). Currently, my computer shows system overload messages with just a few of the more intense plugins which is why I want to upgrade

With the new MBP's, I have a few questions:
CPU: 8-core of 10-core? GPU-wise I think I am fine either way
RAM: 16GB or 32GB? I have 16GB now so buying a new machine with 16GB 6 years later feels a bit risky (although I understand unified memory would be superior)

Any thoughts would be really appreciated :)

Thanks!!
