Apple updates iMacs with new Intel processors and AMD GPUs

 

Apple has finally refreshed its regular iMac desktops, offering new processors and graphics chips for the 21.5-inch and 27-inch models. This is the first update for the iMac lineup in nearly two years, but the iMac Pro remains untouched for now.

The 21.5-inch iMac now features either an 8th Gen quad-core i3 or six-core i5 processor and either a Radeon Pro 555X GPU or a Radeon Pro 560X by default. But customers who want more power can configure a custom model with up to a six-core i7 processor, 32GB of RAM, and AMD’s Radeon Pro Vega 20 GPU (with 4GB of memory). It’s similar spec options to what Apple already has on the refreshed Mac Min.

All the 27-inch models come with 8GB of RAM and Apple’s fusion drive by default, although more memory (up to 64GB, depending on the model) and more / faster storage (up to a 3TB fusion drive or 1TB of SSD) are available for those willing to pay a bit more.

These two new iMacs are going up for pre-order today and will start landing in stores next week.
