[QUOTE="robertoblake, post: 1571135, member: 308829"] I currently use a 21inch mid 2010 iMac for Photoshop. It's currently running Photoshop CC. I am able to do photo manipulation artwork using my 24MP photos with no problem. In fact I am able to do so while screen recording using Apple Quicktime. My windows laptop also handles this type of work fine with a 5400RPM hard drive as well. In both cases I'm using an external drive as a Scratch Disk to help with performance. I'm not posting this youtube link to spam, but to demonstrate how this actually performs on my iMac. Demonstration of Photo Manipulation on 21inch iMac while recording in Apple Quicktime [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XAOXUnIXXc]Photoshop Speed Art Dark Valkyrie Diana League of Legends - YouTube[/url] The newer iMac models are even more powerful than mine so if the goal is to do high end Photoshop work, while more power is always better, its not always "necessary" and can save you a few bucks.
