Hi guys,
I plan on getting a new apple computer soon on finance. I'm a home producer and that's what i plan to mainly use this for. I just need a hand on choosing which one is actually worth it for the money as they all average the same price at different specs.
(Note i did have this all nicely presented and then i closed the webpage by accident just as i went to post, so this is now a rushed post)
Option 1)
21 inch imac
3.1GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.9GHz
16GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2X8GB
1TB Fusion Drive
NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 1GB GDDR5
Apple USB SuperDrive
Apple Magic Mouse
(Note that the processor has been upgraded from
2.9GHz Quad-core Intel Core i5, Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz
and the ram has been upgraded from 8 to 16)
Total Price. £1,883.00
Total Price for i5 with 8gb: £1,563.00
option 2)
27 inch imac
3.2GHz Quad-core Intel Core i5, Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz
16GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2X8GB
1TB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200 rpm

total price: £1,813.00
Option 3)

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M 2GB GDDR5

If you have a better suggestion for what setup is actually worth the money let me know.
I just need the unit to be future proof for like 5years+ if thats even possible.
Edit: I own a macbook pro 2009 model ( The battery has currently died, i will most likely replace the battery, hdd, and ram all together in a couple months down the line for portable music operations, Hence why i haven't included a macbook pro option)
