Decisions, can anyone help me? (Patreon)

My computer is not really up to the task anymore and I am desperately in need of a replacement. With your kind pledges I am hoping to do that, but I need to make sure its the right equipment.

From your brilliant feedback (thank you) to date I have realised that I need 32gb RAM, a multicore i7 or better, decent graphics.

I think these two are my choices. I am leaning towards apple for it being carefree, but its over budget. Could I tailor it to be cheaper?

And is there a way to remove the touchscreen option on the HP?
