Upgrade help!

[thomasarisager]

I'm looking to buy the new 21" Imac.

I'll mostly be playing on it - at least to start with - but I would like a little bit of futureproofing.

I'm only playing games like StarCraft 2, Witcher 2 and so on, but would like for once to be able to put settings on high

1. How much for gaming will it help to take the better 21" inch? It has 2,7Ghz over 2,5Ghz and a Radeon 6770 over 6750. On diffenerent sites the 6770 shows to do around 20% better - but will I need that?

2. If taking the better 21" - how much will it help to upgrade to the i7 core with 2,8 Ghz and multithread capabilty in games?

Thanks

1. It would help to have more graphics but you don't really need it.
2. It would help if you want it "future proofed"
over all if you want a computer future proofed go for the higher spec model
