I now have an iMac Pro and maxed out 2019 iMac. AMA.
A beautiful new base model stock iMac Pro just showed up at my work. It’s a surprise because I was originally denied an upgrade to the Pro version but I think my boss’ boss pulled some strings. I also recently purchased a maxed out 2019 iMac 5K for home use. So I’m in a bit of a unique... -

2019 iMac i5-9600K/i9-9900K or i5-9600KF/i9-9900KF?
I am just wondering if the 9th gen CPUs in the 2019 iMac are regular 'K' series processors that do contain Intel graphics for Quicksync encoding. There have been a few mentions that they are only 'KF' series processors (including in a linus tech tips review of the latest iMac) with Intel...- JacobHarvey

Crazy to wait for 2019 iMacs refurbs?
Hello all. So, I am finally ready to buy my first iMac, and I'm going to spec it out in order to future-proof it as much as possible. I'm coming from a 2013 MBA, and typically go at least this long between computers, so more is better when I do buy. My question is this: any idea at all when the...- scarylarry

(2019 4K iMac) Just bought my first real desktop mac in almost a decade.
(Sorry this thread doesn't really have any direction!) So. I took the plunge. After years of owning a decently specced (to 2015 or so) "gaming" PC I've bought not only my first desktop Mac, but also the first brand new desktop Mac I've ever owned.

Ditch iMac Pro for iMac 2019 i9? Noise?
I have an iMac Pro with 64 RAM and it is still in the return window. I'm wondering if I should consider ditching it for a i9 8 core 2019 iMac with similar specs and save about $1400 (by adding my own RAM from OWC).

2019 iMac with external SSD?
First post here... Thanks for reading. I’m a fan of SSDs and have been using them in my (now ancient) iMacs. I am ready to pony up for a new 2019 iMac, but am not wanting to shell out what they ask for SSDs inside. I’m not afraid to install SSDs inside the machine, but figure I can wait until... -
