Hi everyone,
Pulling the trigger on a 2019 27” iMac today.
Definitely picking up the top tier 27” with 1TB SSD.
With RAM and other accessories, my budget will only allow for either the CPU upgrade to i9 8 core or the Vega 48. Or would the base model with 1TB SSD upgrade be enough for what I do?
As a blogger, artist and writer, I convert 1080p iTunes media and dvds & occasional blu ray. May start 4K conversions too. Will also be using Affinity Photo and Publisher (when released), Pixelmator Pro, Final Draft, MS Word etc.. I may pick up a Wacom tablet and run something like Clip Studio if the iPad touch irresponsiveness issue is not fixed as well.
My current work flow consists of video conversion(s) running with simultaneous video playback, image editor and writing software open and a browser with several tabs open.
I do not use video editing software (yet) and am not a gamer. Currently running a 2013” iMac 4 core with HDD spinner, 24GB of Ram and 1GB graphics card.
Suggestions/Advice would be great. I am not sure the Vega would be worth it for me. I have read several threads here and elsewhere and am still uncertain what to do.
Many thanks everyone.
