I'm getting ready to order a new 21.5 " iMac and am hoping for some advice on which upgrades to get. I'm trying to keep the price low so I'm trying to decide between upgrading to the i7, fusion drive, or 16 gb of ram. I'd like to only upgrade to one of them, so which one do you think will be most beneficial to overall system performance? I will mostly be using the Mac for organizing/editing dslr photos in iPhoto and editing 1080p avchd videos with adobe premier elements 11. I won't really be doing any multitasking so I am kind of leaning away from the 16 gb ram upgrade. I'm assuming the 8gb should be enough for anything I can throw at it in iPhoto and adobe premier if I'm not running anything else simultaneously (other than maybe mail or iCal). Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
