Hello, I was looking at replacing my iMac 2014, and l think of either going with a new iMac or a Mac Mini + an EGPU And was wondering what you all though it.
The main thing I want to use the mac for are; graphic designer, motion graphic, video editing and 3D program. I also use bootcamp (win 10) with some gaming on the side. (At either 1080p or 1440p)
Mac mini: - $5627 (AUD) (Self upgraded ram) (keyboard/mouse/monitor not included in price)
iMac Specs (27-inch 5k) - $6234 (AUD) (Self upgraded ram)
I did not want to buy two for both work + gaming so I thought the mac Mini + EGPU would work best for this giving better FPS compared to the iMac Vega 48 card.
(At either 1080p or 1440p)
Out of the two computers what would you say work the best?
Thank you for your time,
Shizumi.
