GieltjE18078yDefinately 16GB, the faster the cpu the better (have a 6600k myself for winforms 3m lines with resharper and that is pushing it sometimes....)

There is something to be said for running code on machines that are closer in spec to your users.
More powerful machines are better if you are doing heavy compiles, which shouldn't be the case for web development.
That suggests saving some cash and getting the lower spec machine, (which is still pretty decent - I presume it has an SSD which is the main thing). -
GieltjE18078ySsd is a good requirement as wel, but having a slow dev machine costs way to much time in a day. If the user experience is a requirement get a virtual machine or an actual machine that would be used by the customer. These usually have slower IO, ram, cpu, gpu e.t.c.
