The Apple iMac is getting a significant power boost

Apple have announced that the 27inch iMac is getting a power boost, in almost all areas, with Intel processors up to 10 cores, double the memory capacity, next-generation AMD graphics, super-fast SSDs across the line with four times the storage capacity and more.

“Now more than ever, our customers are relying on the Mac. And many of them need the most powerful and capable iMac we’ve ever made,” said Tom Boger, Apple’s senior director of Mac and iPad Product Marketing. “With blazing performance, double the memory, SSDs across the line with quadruple the storage, an even more stunning Retina 5K display, a better camera, higher fidelity speakers, and studio-quality mics, the 27-inch iMac is loaded with new features at the same price. It’s the ultimate desktop, to work, create, and communicate.”

Across the board everything has been improved, the full tech spec list can be found here. Though starting at $2,799 it is not a cheap machine. The 21.5inch iMac was also updated recently and starts at $1,699 if that is in your price range.
