What iMac is good for a new youtuber?

I want to buy a new iMac in order to be a YouTube gamer, and I think the 21,5 top of the line iMac might be good, but I don't know about technical stuff so I don't know if it can handle the games and screenflow.

PS. I'm planing in playing games like minecraft and the walking dead, but mostly I want to play indie games
 
If you're gonna play games, then buy a Windows desktop PC. Or install Windows on Mac to play games. And also, if you're gonna get Mac, buy a retina macbook pro, the screen resolution is just beautiful.

Buy refurbished. Great savings and quality machines! That being said, you are going to want as much RAM as possible, and try to get an SSD or Fusion Drive. Buying a new iMac with a hard drive is like buying a Porsche and driving it in a parking lot in 1st gear only.
 
why not buying a gaming pc ?
if you want a mac get the retina macbook for video editing your youtube videos but gaming not so mach.
