I am getting a new MacBook Pro and also getting Final cut studio.

I want to either upgrade my proccessor or memory.

If anyone knows what is more important to running final cut studio (RAM or proccesor) please tell me.

It is probably "6 one way...half dozen the other way" as the saying goes.

The bigger thing to look at is can you do both upgrades easily down the road...and this would suggest that you should upgrade the processor now as it cannot really be done at a later date. Thus, if you have limited funds right now, do the processor now and then you can upgrade the RAM (if you need to) when you have more money available. You cannot really do it the other way as processors are generally not upgradeable in an Apple laptop.
