Looking at iMac 4K. Couple of options, wonder if these are worth the extra?
There is a 6 core i5 3GHz with boost to 4.1GHz and 560X 4Gb. This against the 3GHz i3 4 core (no boost?), 555X 2Gb.
I’m thinking of dropping the fusion and getting a 256Gb SSD and keep my Photos library (1Tb) on an external USB disk.
I presume the 6 core only comes into its own if the app is designed for it?
So the difference would be £180 more for the 6 core? But it runs at slower speed apart from boost?
Tasks are basic photos and videos, with some 4K basic editing. General day to day use.
