Last night, the Apple Online Store went on a break and posted a sticky telling everyone they’d be back soon. Shortly after, the new iMacs were up and available! And just in time for the newly launched Starcraft II for Mac. Coincidence? We choose to think not! The new iMacs promise faster speeds, more power, and best of all, they start from only RM3899!
Here’s what Apple has to say about the new and improved iMac:
New Intel Core processors across the line.
All iMac models now include processors from the blazing-fast Intel Core series, featuring an advanced processor architecture that helps set new performance benchmarks for iMac. The 21.5-inch models and one 27-inch model come standard with a dual-core Intel Core i3 processor starting at 3.06GHz. For even more performance, choose the top-of-the-line 27-inch iMac with a quad-core Intel Core i5 at 2.8GHz or optional Intel Core i7 at 2.93GHz. Four cores make just about everything you do faster: managing your photos, editing HD video, even playing graphics-intensive 3D games. And since Mac OS X Snow Leopard is designed to take full advantage of Intel dual- and quad-core architectures, you get the fastest performance possible.
Faster graphics.
Every iMac includes powerful discrete graphics, meaning the graphics processor is
separate from the CPU. So whether you’re an amateur filmmaker or an avid gamer, iMac gives you faster, smoother, crisper graphics no matter which model you choose. The 21.5-inch iMac offers fast graphics performance with either the ATI Radeon HD 4670 with 256MB of dedicated memory or the ATI Radeon HD 5670 with 512MB of memory. Which one is right for you? The greater the memory, the faster the performance for graphics-intensive applications such as games and video editors. When you step up to the 27-inch iMac, you can choose the ATI Radeon HD 5670 with 512MB of memory. Or enjoy amazing performance with the ATI Radeon HD 5750 with 1GB of GDDR5 memory. You’ll notice the speed boost every time you run your favourite 3D applications and games.
Also released is the Magic Trackpad, the first Multi-Touch trackpad designed to work with your iMac. It’s a bigger version of your MacBook Pro trackpad and has the same scroll, swipe, pinch and rotate functions. It sits perfectly and comfortably beside the Apple Wireless Keyboard so you can go from typing to gesturing and right back again! Once again, Apple has changed the way we’re used to working, giving us something even better.
