Good day folks,

Earlier this month, I purchased two Haswell iMacs (21.5" and 27" respectively), and my 21.5" model seems to have a strange model identifier that's not listed anywhere in Apple's site.

The 21.5" is supposed to be iMac14,1 and the 27" is iMac14,2.

Yet my 21.5" is displayed as iMac14,3 , which apparently doesn't exist anywhere.

I've attached a screenshot.

In Geekbench, I searched results for other iMac14,3s. And one iMac14,3 was even more bizarre, because it had an i7-4770K in it. Apple only uses the i7-4770S in the 21.5" and i7-4771 in the 27".

Any ideas folks?

I think you found the "golden ticket." Now you get a free tour of Apple head quarters ;)
