Hey friends,
Recently finished grad school at good ole UCLA. 34 years old now but I finished. I am no longer a Hard core gamer like I was back in the early 2000's. The only game I play now is the Sims 3, yes Sims 3. I am thinking about selling off my current PC that I built last November and buying the top of the line 27inch iMac. My current rig is built inside of a Silverstone SG09 and it contains the following:
I7 3770k
Gigabyte G1 Sniper M3
16GB Corsair Ram
EVGA GTX 680 Classified 4GB
2 Intel 520 240GB SSD(not in Raid, one is dedicated for Linux Mint)
Asus 27inch PB278Q PLS Monitor
Windows 7 Professional
Since building this little beast, the only game I've played is the Sims 3 and a whole bunch of typing in Word while in grad school. The question for those who have switched from a high end Windows system to a Mac, were you satisfied? Will the 27inch iMac fill my needs for light gaming, Word documents, and web surfing? Should I just keep my computer, be happy, and not lose the $2700-$3000 I put into it? If I sell all the parts on eBay I know I will loose a lot of money. My days of spending 8 hours playing a game are over and I would like that clean professional look if you know what I mean. Thanks folks for your time.
