Our Verdict
This model’s 2.93GHz processor puts in the middle of the three 24-inch configurations. It also features discrete Nvidia GeForce GT 120 graphics with 256MB of GDDR3 memory to better graphic-intensive apps.
The iMac continues to be a desktop Mac that’s powerful enough to please both general consumers and professionals. The 24-inch models are an attractive buy, as they offer more memory and storage capacity as well as better performance than the lone 20-inch iMac. And this model’s discreet graphics help it perform graphically-intensive tasks.
