Honest opinions from "130" iMacs

[nusynergy]

I can't wait till the 4850's ship, and if they ARE the desktop versions they are going to be so good, the 130 won't compare.

lol and the chances of that happening are.... Bearing mind that the rest of the Computer is basically a Laptop.

I am still interested in how well it will run compared to the 130, mainly for gaming.

Assuming Apple has not done something remarkable like release an overclocked part, we already have a good idea that the ATI card will be 15-20% faster in most games than the GT130.

Now personally, I think that ATI support and drivers have been more stable and I think that ATI silicon has fewer issues with failing compared to Nvidia, so if I end up with a 2009 iMac it will be the ATI equipped one even if it hardly benches any better than the GT130.
