Hey Guys

So here’s the story I have a tiny room, my current 2013 27” iMac setup takes up half the room and feels cluttered and odd with a tv in the same room.

I considering ousting it for a Mac mini, as I can hook it to my TV and have everything in one place.

Ok enough with waffle, I am a casual gamer and only love my strategy games like star craft 2, Warcraft 3 reforged, Diablo 3, Xcom 2 etc. Besides this I will be using the Mac mini for the basics web browsing, email, ms office etc.

If I add a Vega egpu and go for a full speced model with a 512gb ssd, would I notice a difference leaving a IMac. Or should I bear looking at the ugly setup and upgrade my iMac down the line.

I would like to also add that I use a 2016 MacBook Pro which I guess can benefit from a Vega Egpu.
 
MM 2018 will outperform your Imac 2.5x or so. Imac 2019 will be on par.
