iMac 27″ Pricing

Yeah yeah, here is the 27″ iMac pricing guide. This is in addition to the 21.5″ Guide, more information given on that one.
I’ve had a few of these before and they are nice, luckily I’ve yet to come across a bad GPU model. There’s a lot of tech garble on this, so skip down to ‘Pricing Guide’ if you’re just interested in iMac pricing only.

Common Upgrade Pains on most iMacs:

  • Installing a bigger HDD or SSD can make the fan run at 100% – MacFan Control to ‘fix it’
  • RAM upgrading is a pain – some 2009 – 2012 iMacs are more picky & don’t boot from RAM
  • CPU upgrading is a gamble – iMacs won’t just boot, specifically the i7-3770s working but i7-3770 wont for you, but to others… it can work just fine

This page was made in November 2017, so prices should depreciate from 5% to 20%.
There are 2 distinguishable versions so far; the ‘thick’ 2009 to 2011 units with the vent on top & DVD drive, then there is the 2012 & later that don’t have CD drives, thinner, and have the RAM door right below/behind the hinge.
In addition to this, the late 2014 models introduced a 5K display.

Disclaimers:

You’ll get mixed results on upgrading the processors on the 27″ model, not sure about Core 2 Quad/Extreme or i5/i7 on the 21.5″. Also you can supposedly upgrade the GPUs on these machines. But this post will mainly focus upon finding a good deal to buy or one to flip. Another thing on these GPUs is that they use laptop or mobile versions of the graphics card. So my Passmark scores might not be that completely accurate because these were tested on a wide range of machines that has different heatsink designs, voltage input and (most importantly) different dedicated RAM configurations, so just take it as a ballpark.

To make things easier, we are going to start with the common iMac, 21.5″ (A1311 or A1312 model body). These machines are becoming fairly cheap now, and this will most likely be a great gift for anyone who wants to replace their old desktop. I am going to start detailed information upon them all and then do the price comparisons, then the same sequence with the 27″ iMac. All of these iMacs are High Sierra compatible, not so sure if they’ll work on the next OS update, as Apple seemed to kill off the 2009 Mac Pro & even the latest Mac Mini.

Abbrevations… just in case you don’t know them 🙂
DC – Dual Core
QC – Quad Core
CPU – Processor, Central Processor Unit, the computational power (word, calculations)
RAM – Random Access Memory – Higher = more tabs on chrome, layers in photoshop, tracks on music programs
BTO/CTO – Build or Configure to Order
dRAM – Dedicated RAM for Graphics Cards
HDD – Hard Disk Drive
SSD – Solid Disk Drive (fast)
Fusion – These are SSHD drives whch is a HDD with a SSD built into the greenboard. The numbers in parenthesis will be how big the SSD partition is, e.g. 1TB Fusion (128) = means 1TB HDD space, 128GB SSD space.
PM – PassMark Score – Higher the better, note CPU and GPU scores are different from each other.
There are two scores for passmark, the first is the score total for the CPU, and the second is the single core/thread, some applications are limited to single core performance or dual core performance, which quadcores aren’t needed.

How to Identify a 27″ iMac

First off, I’m going to say, its going to be very very hard to tell which iMac it is, if you just have a photo of the front.
All these iMacs look directly identical without any angled shots. From what I understand, the base is slightly thicker on the 2009 to 2011 models, and it got thinner for 2012 and later. Even with that information, I believe it is near impossible to know if its 5K 2014 model or later.

However, MacWorld did notice the later iMacs are less reflective, so if you don’t easily notice the black outline square, it might be a newer model. This is only when the screen is off. Good luck with it turned on.

2009 to 2011 27″ iMac

However if you do get to see an angled shot, or a side shot, it is very easy to tell if its ‘thick’ 2009 to 2011 or thinner 2012 and later.
I mean just look at it, the sides are about a inch thick, while the other ones are about 5cm. The right side you will see a slit for a DVD drive and below that, an SD Card slot. In addition to this, 2009 iMacs have that ‘cheese grader’ vent holes like the Aluminum Mac Pro or PowerMac G5. RAM is located on the bottom if the door is missing.

2012 to 2015 27″ iMac

Gone is the DVD drive, the SD Card slot is now relocated inconveniently in the back. You’ll notice the sides of the unit are very slim. On the rear you will not see any vent grills or holes of any kind. On the bottom you will see vent slits, but these are for in-taking cool air, the exhaust fan is in the middle of the unit. You won’t see the exhaust fan outlet is obfuscated by the stand, you’ll notice it when seeing on the side. In addition to this, the 27″ iMac has that RAM door cover, the 21.5″ slim models do not, so if someone is advertising a 4K iMac and you are not sure if its a 27″, that RAM door would give it away. The power button looks like it was moved slightly more closer to the center than the previous model, because aesthetics matter more than convenience to Apple! Also the Vesa mount options look like they limit the exhaust.

2017 iMacs and later

They look identical to previous Tampered Edge iMacs of 2012, but now they have two USB C ports (ThunderBolt 3) instead of the ThunderBolt 2 that is backwards compatible being a MiniDisplayPort. Highly doubtful if someone doesn’t remember what year iMac they are selling, unless its like, stolen or for some odd reason, the business is fire selling it and the IT team got fired or… someone goofed up real bad. If you can’t see it, ThunderBolt 3 (USB C) looks like a 0 and not a squared D like the previous ThunderBolt 2.

And Just because. iMac Pro Hype Train

Obviously the easiest way to distinguish the 2017 iMac Pro thats being released in December, is the Dark Grey exterior is has. In addition to this, they brought in new intake inlets so you can definitely see that and the exhaust fan looks like the machine can actually blow out heat. In addition, they now have 4 USB C (Thunderbolt 3) ports and 10 gig Ethernet. (;

Installing an Operating System?

First off, knowing all the Startup Keys from Apple will be a big benefit.
If you bought a unit and don’t have the login password (not firmware), then the best thing is to create a new user instead.

  • When starting up, press and hold Command + S
  • A bunch of code will commence, wait until it asks for root
  • type: /sbin/fsck/ -fy
  • Sometimes this takes from 5 seconds to 2 minutes til it prompts
  • type: /sbin/mount/ -uaw
  • It should go quickly to the next prompt
  • type: rm /var/db/.applesetupdone
  • type: reboot
  • Then create a new user like you normally would, I’ve done this on an iMac G3 to Sierra.

If you don’t have a USB preinstalled with Sierra, Yosetmite, El Capitan or High Sierra, then the next best thing is internet recovery.

  • When turning on try Command-R and wait til it prompts to connect to the internet, but don’t wait longer than 3 minutes
  • Try Option-Command-R or Shift-Option-Command-R if the previous didn’t work
  • Apple probably says it best, just be sure to partition the HDD if you’re using a blanked or new HDD/SSD.
  • Wait from 2 to 7 hours for it to install, then do the setup.

I had to use that way on a 27″ iMac because it seemed to not like my USB I installed. I kept on getting errors like “OSX cannot be installed on this system” near late to the process. There might be some other errors you may encounter too, read on.

With installing OSX so many times, I would do a PRAM reset (command option P R) and then boot to the USB.
Just to be safe, make sure to format the HDD again, and I would have to set the clock too.
I always have to do this whenever I get a macbook that has been sitting with a dead battery.
Sometimes this would have to be the case with an iMac or Mac Pro because their time clock battery might be low or off.

  • To reset the time clock you have to go to utilities on the top left corner and click on Command line
  • For this example, the date will be December 25th 2017, & the time will be 10:30PM.
  • So for that I would have to type: date 122518302017
  • Then install like usual

Recommended sellers

Don’t buy from:

  • LegitiMac – Overpriced & Misleading Titles (like OSX-2017 when its a fucking 2009 Macbook w/ High Sierra)

  • iSellMacParts – Their other store selling broken crap only.
  • Sellers with ZERO feedback and have stock photos for their items with limited info or ‘mint condition/brand new’ and super low prices

Recommended & Fair Sellers

  • IT Replay – Good Prices for general IT equipment, they do auctions.
  • MacsRu1e – Good prices, they seem to test these fairly.
  • GreenCitizen – Usually they auction items of all kinds. Made profit fixing up their ‘as is’ units.
  • Quality Macs – A bit pricey on new models or mint condition, based in San Diego, they are detailed in info and battery life too.
  • Tekdeals – Fair prices, a bit pricey on later machines, all BIN so yeah.

Power Rankings – From Best to Worst

  • Best – The best you can get at the time, usually a CTO option
  • Better – High end model, but might be limited in some way, can be the ‘best one you can get’ but isn’t IMO.
  • Good – You’ll might be likely to feel some constraints if you wish to push it.
  • Mid – Middle of the road, standard model.
  • Fair  – Typically these have a better CPU than the entry model if you spring cash for it.
  • Base – Entry model, for those who need the bare necessities.
  • Edu – Education model, downgraded CPU, RAM and HDD size, but still decent for photoshop.
  • Budget – A base model with slower CPU, cheaper HDD, less RAM, and/or downgraded GPU

  • In the slimmer iMacs they removed the optical drive, the SD Card slot is now behind the iMac…
  • Oddly Apple went with nVidia graphics, so this year and next year are arguably great for Adobe programs, because nVidia uses CUDA cores and some companies ultilized/forced to use them to give nVidia an edge.
  • They also removed the FireWire port, & separate microphone input, but added 802.11n wifi, & bluetooth 4.0 nao
  • Still 4 USB ports, but now these are USB 3.0 instead of 2.0
  • Instead of upgrading RAM from the bottom, there is now a door in the rear, this isn’t available in the 21.5″ models
  • The glass is fused or glued onto the display, supposedly it can’t be removed or replaced = deal on ‘broken’ iMac

  • There’s no benchmarks on this Radeon card, but it is known to be slower than the M290X
  • Compared to the previous 2015 i5 model, this was $500 cheaper at launch & with a regular HDD
  • I don’t know why Apple never had a Haswell CPU system, maybe it had something to do with that deflecting sales from their aging & neglected Mac Pro trash can.
  • Not sure why they brought this out, this isn’t an Education model and the newer iMac came out soon after. QQ no Haslel processor
  • Not too many of these sold… must of been unpopular due to people waiting for the newer systems.

  • For the ports, replaced ThunderBolt 2 with ThunderBolt 3, which is USB C now.
  • Also the display can get brighter than the previous model
  • The top’d spec iMac with extra options would supposedly cost about the same price of the base spec’d iMac Pro.
  • Honestly I wouldn’t even recommend a top’d spec, because the iMac Pro is going to have considerable cooling upgrades, faster RAM, and way better GPU.
  • I’m not sure if the pin out or voltage is different on the brigher 5K panel from the previous P3 unit.

Early 2018 – iMac Pro – Xeon – 32GB DDR4 RAM 2666MHz

Not released yet…
New – $5440 to $18,000

  • Based God Model – 8 Core
  • Dark Souls Mid Boss Model – 10 Core
  • Mr Bones Wild Ride Model – 18 Core
  • Gone are traditional spinning rust HDDs, these will only have NVMe SSDs which will make these super quick.
  • Some spokesperson at Apple said the iMac Pro isn’t going to replace the Mac Pro, but honestly no one wants the trash can Mac Pro because it’s not as nice looking compared to an iMac. People will def shell out $1500 more on a base model iMac Pro, than the failed thermal designed Mac Pro.

And that’s it! I will be making a video soon to talk about iMacs and comparing them all. 🙂
