- Late 2015 27" iMac, 3.3ghz, M395 gpu, 2tb Fusion, 8gb
I'm looking to finally upgrade my iMac after 10 years and I'm debating between the late 2014 27" w/ 1tb older fusion (with 128gb of flash), 3.5ghz quad i5 processor, 8gb ram, MF886LL/A, vs the current 2015 least costly 27" model, with 1tb 7200rpm drive, 3.2gb ram etc...MK462LL/A
They would both run about the same price, actually the older one is slightly more. My main thinking is that the older version has the better fusion drive and doesn't give anything else up. Is there really anything different about the later model? If I wanted to go with a used one I could get the 2014 model even cheaper, in fact there are a few listed on eBay local to me. Unfortunately they all had a slight chip in the front glass that would just drive me crazy after spending the money.
As you can see from the specs on the left of my current machine this would be a huge upgrade. Luckily I also have a business MB Air so I'm relatively up-to-date on that one.
