Sorting out the iMac Graphic Cards...?

[haikuman]

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.

The question Matt is which is the better Graphics card ....and best value *(:>*

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.
