M3 Max 16-CPU, 40-GPU + 64GB RAM (apple refurb) - £3250
M4 Pro 14-CPU, 20‑GPU 16‑core Neural Engine + 48GB RAM - £3500
M4 MAX 16-CPU, 40‑GPU 16‑core Neural Engine + 64GB RAM - £4600
All 16 inch and 2TB SSD.
Which option is best for my needs? Or would even a M2 Max or M3 Pro be enough.
I use Davinci Resolve (and Ableton) for editing & some fairly heavy color correction, fusion. 2k footage but maybe 4k in the future. More concerned about being able to edit quickly than I am final export times.
Appreciate any advice
