Apple iMac 2019 – How good is it?

How good is the 2019 Apple iMac? Well, I’ve got my hands on an i9 8 Core model, and in this video I give it a workout to see what the performance is like, and how it compares to the iMac Pro units that I use – is the iMac Pro really worth that extra cash?

You can see the benchmarks and also a real world view of how the unit actually operates – I’ve compared it with the 2018 i7 6 core Mac mini as well as against my iMac Pro.

I load the machine to look at thermal throttling to see if it is likely to overheat – so if you’re potentially after one of these units, and want to see what it’s about – this is the video for you.

Any questions (about the iMac – I’m not a Doctor), drop a comment below and I’ll reply when I can.

As a quick side note – the normal models of these come with Fusion drives. Really Apple? Spinning drives at this price-point? In 2019. Come on.
