iMac (27-inch Retina 5K, 3.3GHz Intel Core i5, Late 2015)

The iMac (27-inch Retina 5K, 3.3GHz Intel Core i5, Late 2015) introduced in October, 2015 sports the newest innovating quad core processor Intel Core-i5 Skylake and a Fusion Drive. The graphics shared memory as well as the RAM speed has also been boosted. The design is similar to the iMacs of 2012. This is the all-in-one desktop computer in an ultra-thin (5 mm depth at the edges) all-aluminum unibody casing behind the 27-inch LED-backlit IPS widescreen Retina 5K display. There’s a bulge though in the center of the back panel to house all the hardware. The computer is mounted on an aluminum stand with a slightly tapered foot and an adjusting hinge.

The speakers’ grills also work as the vent ones.
