Normally despite all the bitching and moaning after a new product release - i am more than happy to be one of the first guinea pigs - e.g got every post 3GS iphone on release day. After the 1st rMBP and ipad3 - i felt a little betrayed, sold the mbp when gen too came out. Finally sold my ipad 3 - thank god - it never faired to well with graphic heavy games/videos, multiple apps, the ipad-air so much superior.
I just have a strange gut feeling that this imac will be plagued with issue, and in a few years when graphics applications improve and 4/5K content is finally more commercially available- i fear this machine will struggle. I could be wrong and certainly am pleased others are willing to pull the trigger and go for this model - good luck!
A very informed remark!
I certainly have my reservations about this machine and have decided to await the skylake imac; as this will be a couple of generations on, and hopefully will include a better gpu proven to run such high pixels, also: tb3, pci-ex-3, Usb 3.1, hdm-2, etc - but i certainly would not consider anyone buying this machine either stupid or informed.
Best reply of the thread - apple care for these would be a prerequisite.
That would be quite interesting and explain the choice of the gpu
Good point, but i though TB3 was coming in skylake in 2015. Correct me if i am wrong, i though the next gen macbooks will be braodwaell, q2/3 2015, followed by skylake for desktops q3/4 2015.
