I could buy the 2.3 ghz processor, which is an i7 quad with 8 GB of ram and a 500+ GB 7200 rpm hard drive.

I could go for a smaller 2.0 ghz processor i7 quad core, with a standard hard drive and 4 GB of ram.....then I could upgrade the ram to 8 GB myself and upgrade the hard drive to an internal 500+ GB SOLID STATE hard drive for about the same price as above.

So, is it better to have a 2.3 GHZ processor with a 7200rpm drive OR a slightly slower 2.0 GHZ processor with a solid state drive??? (both would end up with 8 GB of ram and an i7 quad core processor)
 
you don't need 8 gigs of ram and the 2.0 quad core should be more than enough to mix multi-track

Exactly. I would definitely make sure you have the 7200 RPM Hard drive too. Preferably separate from your system drive.
