MacBook Pro 15" 2015... 2.2GHz or 2.5GHz??

Hi everyone. I would gladly appreciate it if someone can help me out.

I'm trying to upgrade from a 2010 MBP to a 2015 MBP but I am not sure if I should get a 2.2 or 2.5 GHz (both i7). I want to start creating videos and placing them Youtube. Each video shouldn't be longer than 30mins. I will be using the Final Cut Pro software. So my question is, will a 2.2 and 2.5 make any difference? Please help. Thank you.

MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015)

It is a nominal difference. Don't forget it has both Turbo Boost which "automatically increases the speed of the 2,2 up to 3.4GHz-- and "Hyper Threading" -- which allows the system to recognize eight total "cores" or "threads" (four real and four virtual).


Unless you do processor intense professional daily work like video/movie editing you will not notice the slightest difference.
