Hi guys

I currently have a 2009 Mac Pro spec below, I wanted a 27 inch screen and the tower is getting in the way however I worried the new iMac will be slower.

What kind on increase / decrease can I expect if I swap to an i7 iMac ? The most intensive thing I do is ripping films in hand brake.

My Mac Pro
Quad core 2.66
4 gb ram
Intel SSD
512 mb GeForce gt120
 
I think the new 27" i7 iMac will be faster in every way (hard drive will be slower unless you get fusion/flash).
