New iMAC has arrived at EPICentre Malaysia. With the prize of :-

imac 21 and 27 inch spec

New iMAC come with the new snow leopard 10.6.1 version and iLife 09. Not to forget, new Wireless keyboard and the new Magic Mouse. It has 2 different size and 4 different specification. The size of 21.5” compare to the old 24” is almost the same. Yes, I said, it almost look same in terms of size but the 21.5″ is wider. iMAC stand is using the same Cinema 24” LED display which mean thinner then the old version of iMAC. As for the 27”, you can buy VESA Mount Adaptor Kit for 24-inch/27-inch iMac and 24-inch LED Cinema Display. To previous user who’s had the Rain i360 turntable, don’t worry you don’t need to get the new one because the old is compatible with the new 21” (use the 20”) and 27” (use the 27”) size.

21.5 vs 24 inch

Not to forget, with the screen size, it can support 1080HD view

Resolution

• 21.5-inch models: 1920 by 1080 pixels (support 1080HD)
• 27-inch models: 2560 by 1440 pixels (support beyond HD @.@ AWESOMEE!!!)

iMAC for 21.5” can be upgrade up to 8gig DDR3 1066Mhz (2 RAM slot) but for 27” you can upgrade it to 16gig DDR3 1066Mhz(4 RAM slot). As for default specification, 27” came with 2×2 RAM, so you can added another on 2 free slot. iMAC also come with SD card reader.

I’m impress with the new build-in speaker compare to the old one, it had enough power/loud to be use on Large bedroom. All you got to do is set the iTunes Equalizer (Command + 2 on iTunes) to spoken word. Even though you have other player like VLC, the sound is still awesome. Below are the benchmark chart comparison between all those new iMAC.

So, base on this chart, it advised to 3.06GHz instead of upgrading to 3.33Ghz. To people who need performance, get the new 27” with iCore7 instead iCore5, almost 35% different between them. For more info hit you local Apple store. For Malaysian, you visit EPICentre has ready stock.
