I just recently picked up a 21.5", mid-2010 iMac with the base configuration (i3 CPU).

I am gathering the parts to upgrade this system. I will be putting in a 128GB SSD (optical drive bay) and a 3.5" 2.0 TB hdd...which I will configure as a fusion drive. I will also be upgrading the CPU to an 3.6GHz core i5 (I5-680). Which should work, according to this link.

Hoping to get some good life out of this system. (kids will be using it for some light video editing for their YouTube channel)
