Any 27" Late 2015 iMac SSD Benchmarks?

so for dGPU last generation had 104 fps and current generation has 105 fps...i bet not even in graphics apps or even in games you will not notice any diff
Thank you Apple sticking with AMD while Nvidia will release 990M a card that will be probably twice as fast

Wait wait, you said there was a difference some time ago... What has happened next?
Before crying have you noticed if both test were running the same OS? Os x//win
Could you post the images found? I have special interest
Yes I've checked, unfornunately we dont see any improvement in this specific test, but we have time to see if it is better with others tests. We will see.
What is clear is that besides the m395x, the m395 does improve in all tests seen.

Here is a QuickBench test on the new 27" with a 2TB Fusion drive. This is a fresh install so it is only testing the SSD although you can tell from the write speeds that there is some logic going on behind the scenes that slows it down; likely to see whether the data should be written to the HDD or the SSD.
Wow thats insane for a fusion drive. I thought it was just a cache inside the HDD that used SATA not an actual PCIe SSD.
Thanks for sharing. That's solved my Fusion Drive versus SSD quandary then. With the 512SSD seeing this sort of speed read and write, it makes more sense for me. Nearly 2.5 times faster than my rMBP
Ok, since you are the first one here with that sweet new GFX card, I say we own you now. We want... we NEED some bootcamp tests, GPU-Z and such.
That's just using the SSD portion of the fusion, as he said. So it's not insane, at all.
Something with the fusion setup is holding it back, or it could be that this particular SSD is simply not as fast at writes as some of the other models. Only way to know for sure I imagine would be to separate the fusion disk in Terminal/Recovery mode, and then run a disk bench on just the SSD.
Either way, those continuous read/writes are so irrelevant. Unless you spend all day copying multi-gigabyte video files to other disks capable of such speeds, it's completely pointless. The key is going SSD. After that, how big those numbers are doesn't even interest me anymore.
Firstly thanks for your answers
Antar3s the sad thing is that they dont do comparision with the m395 :S
Anyways its a great finding, hope to see more, thanks !!

Would also love to see comparison of the m395 with the m395x
Great find, results are not bad at all, but I couldn't find any temperature and fan noise tests...
Same question here…would be nice to see how much difference there is between the 256GB SSD and the 2TB Fusion Drive.
