So my church has decided to jump into the 4k world. As the primary editor, I know my current iMac can handle it.
Late 2013
3.2 i5 Quad
24gb ram
Boot off a 240 SSD external
1 GB dedicated card.
But it bothers me that I can't actually see the 4k file I'm working with on my iMac. I think I could get around $900 for my iMac currently.
Is jumping up to this worth the extra $800 dollars?

I would push the ram again to 24 GB. This is a current special at BH.
