I haven't read much about the iMac following the stream of reviews last year most of which mentioned how amazing it was but I remember these key shortcomings:
Well, we're in 2015 and I'd like to know if those reviews were blown up a bit or if you all in the real world after 3 months with the machine agree with those initial reviews?
My usage is pretty standard
Daily usage of :
Lightroom (RAW images)
Handbrake
Final Cut Pro (4K and 1080P editing)
Office documents (5-10 megabyte XLS files)
I play Sim City, Civilization, Sims 4 (coming out next week) and Warcraft once a week
I have a 27" Core i7 from Late 2012 and I'd like to upgrade but I would need to see performance gains in all of these aspects on top of experiencing the really beautiful Retina Screen.
Assuming I get the faster iMac + better video card, how has the experience been? Thanks!
- Glitches sometimes when a lot is going on with monitor making some strange looking lines across the screen
- Worse gaming performance than last model
- Pricey for what it delivers. Wait for revision in 2015
