The Apple iMac 27in (with Nvidia GeForce GTX 675M) certainly makes a case for itself. Of course, you'll certainly get better performance when you max out the memory and have an SSD on board, as our review model did. If you're a Mac maven who already has ...
The 27in iMac is still an obvious choice for any creative designer. It's immensely powerful and delivers outstanding image quality. It also offers peerless design and impeccable build quality. This model is by far the quickest for running games, although...

The £2,179 or € 2,685 version of the 27-inch iMac is a very fast system, and it still of course has the outstanding 27-inch 2560x1440 display. We loved how the Fusion Drive works in MacOS X. It strikes the perfect balance between having a fast SSD and l...

The 2012 generation of the 27" iMac is slimmer than ever (bye-bye DVD drive), and has lots of computing and gaming power. Oh yeah, and both the screen and audio are top-notch. This is one excellent all-in-one computer! All it really needs is a TV tuner an...

The 27-inch iMac we tested costs £1,699, and that's not nothing. You do get a very stylish computer in aluminium with above-average specifications. It has an excellent 27-inch display, a powerful processor, 8 GB of RAM and a fast graphics card. The main...

The 27-inch 2012 iMac has real style, but it doesn't sacrifice function to form. Its screen is excellent, has lots of power under the hood and the Fusion Drive option is a great alternative to a speedy-but-expensive SSD or a capacitous-but-slow HDD. Some...
