Apple iMac 27″ (Late 2014) Core i7 4.0 GHz — 16GB RAM, 3TB HDD + 128GB SSD

Apple iMac «Core i7″ 4.0 27» (5K, Late 2014) Overview

The iMac «Core i7» 4.0 27-Inch Aluminum (Late 2014/Retina 5K) technically is a «configure-to-order» configuration of the iMac «Core i5» 3.5 27-Inch Aluminum (Late 2014/Retina 5K), but also is documented as a separate model for reader convenience. Other than processor (and the corresponding level 3 cache), these two models are identical.

The iMac «Core i7» 4.0 27-Inch Aluminum (Late 2014/Retina 5K) features a 22 nm «Haswell» Quad Core 4.0 GHz Intel «Core i7» (4790K) processor with four independent processor cores on a single chip, an 8 MB shared level 3 cache, 8 GB of 1600 MHz DDR3L SDRAM (PC3-12800) installed in pairs (two 4 GB modules), a 1 TB «Fusion Drive» (1 TB hard drive and 128 GB SSD), and a AMD Radeon R9 M290X graphics processor with 2 GB of dedicated GDDR5 memory. It also has a built-in «FaceTime HD» webcam and stereo speakers, but lacks an optical drive.

This model has a 27″ 5120×2880 LED-backlit 16:9 widescreen IPS display that Apple has dubbed «Retina 5K». The rear of the case is aluminum and is thicker in the middle and tapers to a razor thin 5 mm at the edges.

Connectivity includes four USB 3.0 ports, dual Thunderbolt 2 ports, Gigabit Ethernet, 802.11ac Wi-Fi (802.11a/b/g/n backwards compatible), and Bluetooth 4.0.

Compared to the Late 2013 models introduced previously, this model essentially has the same external enclosure, but it has a much higher resolution display as well as a modestly faster processor, a higher performance graphics processor, a «Fusion Drive» by default, and Thunderbolt 2 support.
