[QUOTE="Housekat, post: 1248505, member: 201607"] Well, I bought my mac for gaming only and haven't looked back. Sure it was costly, but playing at 1440 resolution looks beautiful. Can't really max out the settings, but everything else is top of the line. The new ones have the 6970m 2gig cards in them, so i am sure thats definitely a boost. The huge cost difference your looking at is the screen. If you priced your top of the line pc with the screen that can support 2560x1440 and is also a ips screen, thats 1k right there, so your pc would in reality cost 2250 compared to the imac which comes with the screen. But you will definitely want the 27 with the top video card in it if its for pure gaming. [/QUOTE]
