Geekbenck on base 27.

Just got my base 27inch iMac with the 3.4 i5, 24gb of ram (added 16 myself), 512gb SSD PCI, and 570 gpu.

Pretty happy with these bench marks. This 2017 machine FLIES compared to my 2015 3.2 r9 390 1tb fusion drive.

14,100 geek bench!

Congratulations, ’njoy!

So one can be happy with an often so-labeled ‘entry-level’ iMac 27"

Nice, same exact machine I'll have next week 512SSD and adding 16GB Crucial RAM. I'm excited coming from a 2011 21.5 w/ Custom SSD.

LOL, I just retired a 2011 2.5 with an SSD. The performance difference is amazing. This SSD is SO AMAZINGLY FAST.

Nice, looks like we had exactly same rig and exactly same new rig lol.

I'm not a pro with all the benchmarks thing, but I just tested my late 2015 27' iMac (actually, it is the first time I do a benchmark test just to compare with yours) its the base model with Fusion Drive also. and I dont find the difference to be so ahead of mine to feel I need it.

Multicore is at 13 170 and single core at 4546.
[doublepost=1498296167][/doublepost]Wow, I do another test with all applications closed :

Not bad, mostly the single core result.
