iMac 2012 27": i5 3,2 vs i7 3,4

[trent75]

Hi everybody!
France still doesn't have receive its "precious".
Is it possible for one of lucky 27" owner to tell me if the i5-3470 3,2GHz is good enough or if the i7-3770 3,4GHz is essential?

My order in preparation: iMac 27" - i5 3,2GHz - GTX 680MX - FD 1To

Thanks a lot for your answers ! 🙂

Good enough for what? You need to be a bit more specific. It's impossible to quantify "good enough" without more information.

There are a LOT of threads about the i7 cpu.

I also recommend reading all the other threads about the i7. It was talked a lot about what it does and what it does not. Take your conclusions from there unless you have a specific question...
