Sorting out the iMac Graphic Cards...? - haikuman - 09-30-2010
Which is the better card being offered... and best value...?
I have a friend from the Philippines who is back in the USA right now. I am helping him to choose his 1st Mac. He wants an iMac. His needs are modest. He is looking at the 21.5 " iMac . However today the Refurb Store is loaded with some good deals on 27" iMacs. Your thoughts and suggestion will be helpful.
TIA,
Rudie *(:>*

if his needs are modest then the graphics card doesn't matter much.

I think screen size and processor speed are more important.
largely depends upon budget and screen size lust. i think he should get at least an i5 processor.

budget?
Core2Duo 3.06 = 2.3 i5.
$1439 3.2 i3 would be minimum, $1539 2.66 i5 would be even better.
