Wait for Skylake Imac with 5K res?? or buy now??

My own decision with this same mid-2011 i7 ( which runs great with an SSD ) is to wait for Intel's tock release( Skylake ). Even if Apple produces a Broadwell iMac, in my opinion the tock release versus the tick is preferable. Waiting isn't a problem for me, so the next significant improvement( Skylake plus possible upgrades mentioned by other posters ) will make me a buyer. Of course, personal choice and specific needs of each user vary, so YMMV.

Whoever said Skylake was delayed:

Wait for few reasons: Thunderbolt 3, usb 3.1 Type C, Skylake and i personally hope for AMD FIJI with HBM memory

Too early, normally GPUs are launched for Q4. I'm curious what AMD can share more. A few weeks ago there was also an AMD investors day, where they shared details on their CPU roadmaps.

I didn't mean they'll be released, just announced. But they'll definitely find their way in to new iMac by October
