Footnote #1: I actually bought the mid-grade model. At the time, I wasn’t sure the CPU coolers were the same across all 27” models. I have since learned that they are; so if you buy the cheapest 5K iMac, you can do all the upgrades I mention in this video without issue.
Footnote #2: This is not an instructional disassembly video. I recommend checking the guides on iFixit. They are well illustrated-provide adequate caution and warning for tricky areas-and have a community section where people provide advice. At the time of this video, there is no updated guide for the 2017 iMac; however, it's very similar to the 2014-2015 A1419 model. The only big difference is the screw placement on the motherboard. Just take your time finding all of the screws (one is hidden through the gold hole in the middle of the board) and you'll be fine.
Footnote #3: A little drama that wasn't included in the video is that the first time around, the CPU got bumped out of the socket when I screwed in the cooler, so the CPU wasn't seated correctly and the computer didn't boot. Upon disassembling the machine again, I saw the CPU was out of the socket and partially bent. I bent the CPU back (silicon bends easily without damaging, luckily), reinserted it into the socket, and was more careful when I tightened the CPU cooler the second time. It's easy to wiggle the CPU out of place when installing the cooler, so be careful-and if it feels too hard to tighten the CPU socket, stop-something is wrong.
Footnote #4 - My machine's GeekBench results: browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/3...
The 27" 5K iMac is a good computer for many; however, to users that want high-end specs, Apple charges way too much money. Snazzy Labs pulls apart a base model iMac, upgrades the CPU, SSD, and RAM; showing the world the best iMac that Apple doesn't sell! Get the world's best iMac configuration for $2,000 less than what Apple charges.

This video took weeks to plan and make. Excited to finally show it to you! It turned out even better than I expected. Please let me know what you think of the new ad integration. I tried to find a happy medium for me, the brand, but most importantly; you, the viewer. Let me know if I've succeeded or what I need to work to improve. Stay snazzy!
I think that the ad integration is very well done. Not too obtrusive, yet informative and in-depth enough for me to be interested in the product. 10/10
Snazzy Labs Ad int is great!
Yes indeed, great job on this video. I'm not even a huge Mac fan but I love seeing your tear-downs, hacks, and upgrades.
Snazzy Labs i think apple uses 7700 not the 7700k which would likely explain why your cpu performs better
I thought the ad was perfectly fine. It wasn't too long and it showed off the features without gushing over the product. It made me want to actually try it even though I already use LastPass.
I like this guy he uses mac because he likes it but knows how to actually build a pc, respect
Gotta walk the walk to talk the talk. LOL. :D
Yea. Gotta respect that.
Some of us system builders just prefer sleek hardware and the OSX platform! I still build PCs, but I switched to Mac for my primary computer in '07 because Apple under Steve Jobs was pure magic. Back then, you could also customize and mod them much easier. Cook is leaving a bit to be desired in terms of value and innovation, though... :-(
ImmortalCoolMinecraftKidHD442 LOL you think Mac useres have no clue of building a PC... What a noob..
why would building pc be impressive? have you ever done legos? well congrats, you can build your pc
SUPER cool video dude! I thought it would be awesome but this turned out even better.
The geekbench score for your 7700k seems pretty normal to me? .. (My stock unit gives - 5782 / 20169)
Is that on your iMac? I admittedly don't have a loaded iMac on hand, so I a) went off of the "average benchmark score" for all of the 2017 fully-loaded 7700K iMac's tested on the GeekBench browser, and b) asked a viewer with a loaded iMac to do the test (he got 18,790). Your score is pretty good; about the same as mine. I don't know why the average is so low. Software related maybe? It isn't the RAM (because I yanked that and tested with the stock kit and was just under 20,000 (so not much slower)), and as you know, thermals in GeekBench don't get anywhere near the thermal throttling ceiling, so it's not that either. I'm flummoxed. LOL.
ya on the 2017 iMac. it could because of my cooler ambient temps though in the office. WE CRANK DAT AC
Dave Lee sup Dave, didn't expect to see you here, lol.
Buy it, it's worth it. I used it in my undergrad as a EEE in college and will probably use it forever. It'll be one of the best investment in your life, especially if you're going into any engineering field.
Ayy Dave wassup lmao
i accidently died touching the power source
fla0mo rip
Lol
let me know when and where the funeral will be held
poor guy....
ill take the Mac
You still dead, guy?
This is one of my favorite tech videos, I love Snazzy Labs!
you make the best Mac videos on UA-cam keep it up
Thanks for the kind words! Stay snazzy! :D
i agree Quinn at its best
Mod/Tune I am PCPR (PC Peasant Race) and even I enjoy these Mac videos.
"my cheap 1440 p monitor"
1080p gang where you at
lol 1080p peasants, don't know nothing about 360p

@cgwworldministries show me where please I need one
240p gang
720 gang where u at?
silicon lottery only comes into play when you start overclocking, the difference in score is almost certainly coming from there 3 factors. 1: the ram you got for this mod runs at a higher speed with better timings then the ram that apple uses. 2: the Polaris GPU you have will hit a slightly higher boost clock then the GPU that was used for the stock mac test. 3: the thermal paste you used on your new 7700k is better then the stuff apple uses by default and that allows you to hold max boost clock for more time.
pike RDM I️ wouldn’t be surprised if Apple bought Lower binned chips but they use the 7700 not 7700k the k has a higher base and boost even when non overclocked so I️ think that is why
The shocking thing here is that Apple wanted more than 1000 $ for an iMac model with worse performance. Then again, maybe it's not so shocking, considering it's Apple.
Is there a way to switch the GPU as well?
Sometimes I watch people take apart and upgrade Apple products like this just for the thrill. One mistake and it is done forever. Exhilarating.
Once I got the screen off I was fine, but man... I was nervous with that heavy/fragile display. LOL.
Why was there a gif of Linus dancing on the screen?
Linus is quite the pretty dancer.
Snazzy Labs try doing a colab with him, however good luck with transportation
Why was there a gif of Linus dancing on the screen?
Why not??? I love to see a little Linus in every video!!!!!
Maxwell Rivera u have a typo there. I think u meant *god of pcmr
Great video, Snazzy Labs! If you're only adding a secondary drive (no CPU upgrade), you can do it without removing any circuit boards. I used this video to add drive to a late 2015 27” Retina 5K iMac (Skylake i7 4.0 GHz), with only 256GB flash SSD factory-installed. The drive-only shopping list is: drive bay adapter, OWC heat sensor (which came with monitor adhesive), SATA data/power cable, and ifixit pizza knife. You only need to remove the left speaker and fan to access the motherboard SATA data and power connections. Reach underneath the edge of the board, and press in the cable connectors (use a small mirror). Route the cable behind the fan mount stands, to the new drive. You may need to loosen and move the right speaker to access the bay mounting screws unless you have tiny-trump hands.

Indeed, but seeing how just opening the damn thing in the first place is such a hassle (and a one-time operation, unless you're willing to waste sticker sets), isn't it wiser to just gut the entire thing and swap as many internal components as necessary and possible? Plus, Apple's thermal paste application (and quality) is usually crap (as you can see from the video; it's spread all over the place, even outside of the copper part of the heatsink, and extremely dry even when new); even if you weren't swapping the CPU, replacing said paste whenever you have the chance is just good practice.
hey can i email you? i have a nice project on my hands
He replaced the stock internal drive or ADDED a 2nd internal drive? It's not clear.
If I had $3000 and needed a new Mac I would probably do the same thing tbh. It should be much harder than just building a pc, just need to be careful with that display
You are probably the best Mac peasant online
Thank you!
Love,

I accidentally bought ddr 2800. will it work?
not at 2800 atleast
plus you can use the wheel as a pizza cutter once you are done with your iMac !
Indeed! A very, very tiny one. 😂
Snazzy Labs so one of those tiny Japanese weird things?
I love pizza. I'm going to take my dad's iMac apart ASAP.
😂
What is this, a pizza cutter for ants?
I did this recently to my 2012 iMac. My hard drive died so I decided to switch it with a SSD and upgrade the CPU. I didn’t grab the OWC cable but haven’t had any issues with my fan. Great video!
Always quality content. Thanks for putting these videos out and for sharing the information in a fun and dynamic way.
Great ad integration, great video and great memes 10/10
go to the apple store and load these kinda videos up on all their computers just to piss them off
Tried that and nobody gave a shit
Go to an Apple store with a hacintosh - that'll annoy them :)
Just AirDrop it 😂
or go to the apple store with some petrol and burn it down
Thanks doing this tommorow. Last week me and My buddies went and turned off every device in an Optus store
Legit, I do enjoy so so so much this guys enthusiasm and pasion for these vids. Makes it all even somehow more interesting than everyday common pc stuff!
This was such a well-made, educational video. Much appreciated.
Well done and worth the wait!
+zollotech Thanks Aaron!
Apple after watching this video be like, Oh you SOB we will make our next iMac much slimmer and CPU soldered to motherboard, RAM soldered to motherboard and then sit there waiting for your video.
+Rigas Doddi Please no. Lol
Snazzy Labs I wish no.
Rigas Doddi they would solder it because it’s making the laptop thinner. Complain about the size. Thinner iMac= soldered on ram
Rigas Doddi crapple dont make none product dumb shit
wtf
You’ve actually inspired me with this video. This will be cheaper then a Mac Pro setup but still very fast. And with that little wheel it’s not as hard to take apart as I thought..
I'm so glad this video exists
Hands down my favorite tech channel. No clickbait, well edited, quality content. This is the only channel I actually watch all the ads for.
Stay Snazzy!
CubeCraft1997 Thank you!
Linus Dancing was Hilarious!
OH YEAH!
Interesting...one day I will try this 🤙🏼
MicBergsma do it. It’s worth it.
Did you do it?
I'm huge fan! Did u try it?
awesome video, good to see that there still is some upgradeability in the new imacs, even if you have to work a bit harder, now if only they used m.2 pcie ssds
new ad integration it's very good
Hi ! I have a fusion drive iMac, instead of replacing the hdd drive I would like to replace the ssd for an original and high Gb storage, my model is 5k 2015. What's the name of the original ssd that is sell with the iMac? Can I find it or have I got to find another brand ? Is it going to work perfectly ?
Please help me :)
Nice video
Love the video! Thank you for making it. My only question is about temps. The 7700K is a hot chip and I would be worried about my Mac's fan speed being more annoying. What do you think? Do you think it runs higher and more often after the swap? I want to do this if it is bearable. Thanks!!!
This is awesome. I just got an old iMac Pro from 2012. I'm seeing what mods I can do to it. All I'm using it for is music, not even video. Should be fun!
5:37 The loaded 5K iMac 27" actually uses an i7 7700, not a 7700K. The K really just means it's good for overclocking, but macOS has quite limited overclocking ability, it doesn't matter.
Not sure why he bought the unlocked version...he could have saved some more money by going with 7700 non-k.
now you can use the extra 1800$ you saved to buy a pc
I've already got too many of those. LOL.
Snazzy holy shit I love your channel, thanks for replying
Sure thing. Thanks for watching! Stay snazzy. :D
You cam build an 8core Ryzen w/RX580 for those $1800
Nope, but the extra could be spent on eGPU case and a quiet overclocked AIO cooled 1080Ti to bring the performance at native resolution from 0 to Average.
"Wild, isn't it?" Well said.
Thanks dashline for sponsering the video, great product!
Pfft, should be called the "Diymac"
That's the nickname I've chosen for it, but it's an SEO nightmare so I decided against it for the title/thumbnail. LOL.
You created a great content this time, I can't really describe how much I loved this, the Idea, the concept and the way you presented. Just everything is completely beautiful in my opinion. Best 8 minutes I spend it on a youtube video for a while.
Thank you 😊
💙
Great video. Perfect length and super informative. I'm looking to potentially upgrade my iMac as well so this is really helpful. What I'm wondering though is, would this work with an 8 core processor? The upcoming iMac Pros are going to have processors starting at 8 core, but I don't want to pay the ridiculous price that Apple is going to charge for even the base model. I've got a 2013 iMac now with an older i7 processor, and it would be killer if I could just upgrade it to an 8 core.
Really nice video - I've just opened up my 2009 iMac - to repair the GPU - and it was super fiddly, amazing how much simpler they have made it now! If i was going to buy/spend this kinda money this is def how I would do it. Neat system, neat idea!
Apple use the 7700 not the 7700k which has higher clocks as well as overclocking :)
They use the 7700 in the base high-end configuration, but they use the 7700K in the loaded configuration. With Kaby Lake, the K variant is clocked 700 MHz higher even without OC, so Apple just runs the unlocked CPU at base-clock.
#kabylakegate
Snazzy Labs is it possible that Apple use some terrible thermal paste which makes the temperature so high so it throttles and lead to some performance decrease
Why would you overclock a CPU that's basically in a laptop? I think that's a big waste of money.
+Stephen _L_S Apple is known for shyte thermal paste and fans that prematurely wear out.
Did you compare the thermals? Maybe Apple uses cheap thermal paste?
nitrowad I️ think Apple uses the 7700 not 7700k
actually it does intel bins the K's higher because they do over clock the differences small yes but there is one.
then why go with a K series cpu? that just doesn't make any sense to me other then the bragging rights that it has a 7700k
nitrowad Came here to say that. Apple is notorious for using cheap thermal paste that dries out and kills the GPUs. I rebuilt an Air, and adding Arctic Silver made a big difference. Fan never runs past 50%.
Fantastic video man. I look forward to more!
Very impressive. You have done well.
Do you think the new Coffee Lake 8700K (same LGA 1151 socket...but different chipset) that will be released in about week and half will work w/ the 2017 iMac?
No, won't work.
snazy labs should try this, as new 2019 iMac are out with 9600 i5 units with same old specs its possible to upgrade old 2017 7600 i5 imac to new processor..
"Using that cheap 1440p monitor"
I can't even afford a 1080p one by myself... Wanna send me it? *LOL*
CDLLBOSS Lee I can have that
Still requires an ISP. Unless using free wifi. I can get 1080p displays for around $50
Depends on if you want a 1080p worth having, guys. Sure, they are cheap, but the ones with accurate color/contras, pixel performance, and refresh rate can cost a decent amount.
Get a job.
Christian Stout
I have a 1680x1050 monitor
Still runs strong since 9 years
1080p 144Hz isn't a worth jump for me so i will keep my monitor 15 years or so until 2k / 4k 144Hz get affordable. That means mid grade gpu like a 1060 for 250 bucks should be good enough to Run a 300$ 1440p Monitor with 144 Hz
So total 550$ for nearly ultra gaming 1440p 144hz.
Today a 1070 alone is 400 $
And the monitor is 530 $
Thats overpriced as fuck
Hi! Awesome video! But i have a question. When I installed my Crucial SSD, the iMac stopped using the NMVe that was in the iMac. How did you make it both to work? Thanks in advance!
could we upgrade like this a 6 core 9th gen imac 2019 to the new not yet released 9900ks ?
OMG he is becoming smart.
Great work! Thanks for sharing this!
8% boost sounds like the gain from superior memory timings from RipJaw sticks you chose. I got a 6-10% boost on all benchmarks on 2016 iMacs by using faster 2133Mhz CL11 HyperX SODIMMS that had optimized jedec profiles. I also tested similar spec'd Ballistix sticks, but they didn't work. Ballistix performed worse than stock, actually
I thought this may be the case, but the clock-speed is 2400MHz on both kits. I actually went so far as to put in the old memory to see if that was the case, and I was still benching nearly 20,000 on GeekBench. So I don't know what is up... It's weird. LOL.
Nice video! The difference in performance could be because you added a better thermal paste which allowed the CPU to run longer without being throttled or maybe run TB for a longer time.
I love it. Many thanks. Years ago when I was fit and healthy I would have tried this myself. Assuming I was still fit and healthy.
"Removing this part can cause serious bodily harm, or even death!! But don't worry, just touch the edges and you'll be fine".... Haha,, ok,, that's a no for me.
Richard Andrews
Just get some insulated gloves if you're really worried about it
How can you die from touching it when it isn't hooked on electricity? (Serious question)
Is there still somehow a current?
All that had to be added was discharge the caps before handling this board. ;)
kifla420 makes sense. I was wondering too and never thought of capacitors.
if you're scared, unplug the thing from the socket it and then hold the power button pressed for 10 second before even starting to open the monitor frame. that should discharge any remaining power on capacitors
Quinn!
A perfect update to this amazing video would be an updated 6 core CPU like the i7 8700k!!!
Brandon Chapman *Motherboard
Does Apple support intel coffeelake?I thought they were still stuck on kabylake and skylake-x.
Thanks so much, really would love to do this to my iMac. Oh, I plan to try dash lane
Hello Quinn.
Could you find out if you can upgrade the CPU, RAM and Hard Drive of the new 21.5" and 27" iMacs, launched in 2019? If you could do a similar video like this one, it could be even better. Thanks!!
Now:
Apple: Hey Quinn, do you want to spend 5 grands for an iMac Pro
Quinn: YAS!!
BRB sending you my iMac to perform surgery on 🖥 - oh wait, I paid for top of the line everything except the RAM 😭😭😭
u got ripped off
Really cool Snazzy Labs!
I've got the same iMac 2017 and I realize that for my work it's most the CPU suffering
Do you think this iMac motherboard can mount a i9 processor too?
Wow! You made it look so easy.
hey, you did the :O face!
(Liked the new ad integration, as well)
Sam T second that
Glad to hear it. Thanks for watching, guys!
This may be a stupid question but could that poor performance of Apple's top-of-the-line iMac possibly be due to the thermal paste/grease that Apple used?
🤔
Reminds me, I need to reseat the thermal material on my MacBook Pro. lel.
That's quite feasible due to the turbo boost function being disabled if the CPU gets too hot. So better thermal paste might transfer heat more efficiently. Downside of this might be that the more heat the CPU is able to dump into the cooler, the less temp differential is available to cool the GPU, so you might find that the GPU throttles more quickly in workloads that stress GPU and CPU.
I don't think that there are "runt" 7700K's given to Apple though. At or below their max turbo clock, they should all perform the same. The silicon lottery applies to anything above max turbo which won't be applicable here.
Adam Saint someone in the comment mentioned apple using 7700 and not 7700k like he is
Great video Snazzy!
+Joachim Kroun Cheers!
This video is a great little tutorial.
Woah tempting
+AppleMacsterRace lol your username.
about the display not running 5k on the LG thing I'm pretty sure that it's impossible to run 5k without thunderbolt 3 or hdmi 3.0 or whatever display port version it is so they couldn't run it at 5k on iMac
It's correct that you'd need DisplayPort 1.4. Mac Pro only has DisplayPort 1.3, but two 5K monitors from Dell and HP allow you to use two cables to get 5K. Apple and LG could have done it, but two cables to run one monitor is against Apple's design philosophy. LOL.
Snazzy Labs oh my bad thanks for correcting me. I love the build
My HP z820 hackintosh (bought refurbished for 990 euros) runs circles around this imac. It's also rock solid and completely functional.
My God man, this was freaking awesome😘 wishing I had a set of tear down balls like you😀 nice work!
Can you try upgrading 2017 7th gen cpu's to 8th or 9th gen cpu's as 2019 imac's are out with 9th gen cpu's without any changes so it could be easy swap and huge performance upgrade!.
Yatheesh Yashasvi I have the same question. I think the socket may have changed for the 9th gen. But maybe the 8700K would be possible, borrowing software compatibility from the 2019 iMac 21”.
@@lux-pro even 9th gen i5 use same 1151 socket so physically its possible for 27' imac 8gb gpu.
No one knows exactly until someone takes risk!
Snazzy Labs be our hero!
You can actually set up a fusion drive with two SSDs, and it'll manage hot blocks better than a human!
can i upgrade my i5 2019 27 inches imac for a i7 processor?
after watching this i could not stop myself subscribing your channel, thumbs up!!!
Cheers!
Loved the video Snazzy makes me want an iMac now lol
That's high praise from you. LOL. 💙
You finally finished it
Indeed. The weeks of planning paid off. It's performing marvelously!
Snazzy Labs have a great day
actually loved this one! don't see mac mods very often
That is so awesome. I absolutely love my 5K iMac.
Is it possible that the maxed out iMac is that much slower because Apple throttles their hardware so it doesn't overheat? After all there is only the one fan.
For example, a lot of phones have batteries that could be charged longer, but they have cutoffs to stop them from becoming dangerous and exploding (with the exception of that one phone *cough cough*)
One thought is, they want to at the top end ($5000+) for the maxed out iMac want to drive you to the iMac Pro which while still $5000 is cheaper and has more power.
all the parts he replaced can be used in any pc. not the case.
Patrick Wilson With all that empty space inside the machine and the price they're charging for it, it's still the shittiest business practice I've ever heard.
Business practice has to do with sales and profit, they certainly make a lot of profit and have lots of loyal customers, so I would have to argue that they're doing something right there haha!
My iPhone 6 blew up
What a great youtuber!
:D
MIDO2802 *idiot youtuber
I've got a 27" iMac Late 2015, I've got the SSD in hand, the adhessive, thermal cable on it's way, but you upgraded to the Blade SSD, but added an SSD. Do you somehow make a fusion drive agian??? Or just throw away the Blade SSD?
Hi, helpful vid - do you know if you can put a 2019 intel processor into this 2017 I Mac?
How will you overclock on a not z series motherboard?
you cant
U w0t m8? The price difference today is 8$
no its not
U w0t m8? The K series is still clocked higher by default, has better quality and thus will turbo higher aswell.
UnknownPlayer their fit perfectly fit the word which is "MOTHERboard"
Is it worth skipping the other video card options on the higher Imac
base: Radeon Pro 570 with 4GB of VRAM
Mid: Radeon Pro 575 with 4GB of VRAM
High: Radeon Pro 580 with 8GB of VRAM
why would you ever buy an iMac?
edgy youtuber user I am tomorrow and will love it.
If you watch any video about the 2017 iMac's you would understand, as explained in this video the 5K screen is almost impossible to buy elsewhere and if you can find it it's outrageously expensive, additionally the proprietary NVME SSD technology in these Mac's is some of the fastest you can currently buy- if you look into buying the same speed PCIe SSD for your Windows machine it is actually about $40 cheaper to get the upgrade from Apple than from a different company. Additionally, if you buy the base amount of ram and upgrade it yourself, which is allowed by apple through a port on the back, then you dont have to pay double the price for Apple's RAM. All in all it is almost impossible to mimic the exact specs of the iMac if you do those things mentioned above with a comparable PC including the price of the monitor. Sure, you could just not get a 5K screen and save boatloads of money, but that isn't the point of the apples to apples argument.
the difference between 4k and 5k are going to be small to non-existent
Are you suggesting that the PCIe SSD's that Apple sells with their iMac's are better than, say a Crucial SSD you could install separately? Is it worth losing your warranty to buy a base model with a fusion drive, then rip out the fusion drive and add a 1-2TB SSD for cheaper?
What an awesome channel this is! Thanks for the info!
Hey, I have a question... Do you if I could upgrade my 21.5" iMac 4k i5 CPU to this? i7? Thanks
Is it possible to 2nd upgrade cpu to 8700k technically?
no
Different board is needed. There are some articles of people saying if you can program board bios your self and figure out the pin change/layout which is exactly the same but certain pins where converted to power distribution or changed to a different job. So if you knew what you where doing and spend 100 hours tinkering you may be able to get it to runing. In all honesty though it would be wasted effort 7700k is near the performance of 8700 minus core count
1stfloorguy Don't forget the imac's pityfull cooler could never cool down an 8700k at load so per core performance would suffer.
Vincent Ryu Nope apple will never put i7 8700K in iMac doesn't have good cooler so the cores would be die in while use it in long time at 80 -70C
There is no 2018 iMac with Intel 8th generation sorry
You finally got the ads right! The video did feel a little empty without any background music, and the echo is still quite bad, but damn it, if this is how good you're videos are going to be in the future you better make some space on the wall for the Gold button ;)
Mic quality will be better in the next video. Decided to mix mono audio to stereo directly in my audio recorder and it was a terrible idea. Recovered the audio as best as I could. Apologies. Glad to hear you liked the ad integration. Appreciate the kind words! :D
You are a legend!. Thank you very much.
I'm curious... how's the fan noise compared to the i5? It is known that the i7 does ramp up a lot faster then the i5. Is the noise difference any different? Thx
Wait! So if you buy an SSD config, there is room for another drive in the iMac?
Mark Davenport That's what I was asking me too!
Mark Davenport Yeah, there's room, but you need the cable and sensor, since it won't be in the machine if you buy an SSD.
LOL😂 When Quinn builds better Macs then Apple!
The Master crapple dont bulid mac dumb shit foxcon bulid it you are stupid as fick that why apple love stupid people like you
Aleksandar be together not the same
Are you mad? lol.
It's not better, the CPU is prone to overheat in such small space with the mediocre cooling, Apple lower the clock speed probably to prevent this problem.
its not a lowered clock speed, its running at stock
thanks for great video. got that tool and removing screen was easy as.
I've got an old iMac with some water damage and was struck by lighting through its ethernet port. Is it worth saving as a secondary screen? It still turns on but it wouldn't boot up so I had to take out the drive to get all my projects off.
But can it run crysis?
the graphics card he has (AM Radeon PRO 575) is comparable to GTX 780 (www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/2969/radeon-pro-575 benchmark scores) so i wouldn't say that even the 4,000$ machine can run crysis
Yes, but quite poorly.
Quite poorly at what resolution though? 5k? The GPU itself is not bad, but paired with a 5k display, it'll obviously struggle so would any equivalent GPU I would imagine. I'm sure that iMac is perfectly capable of running games at 1080p, which is still full HD.
No it's a mac. Can't do shit
8 Bit Paradise Learn before you speak OK.?
What happened to that Snazzy moustache?
Hey quinn! Wonder if you'd do this with the 2019 iMac by upgrading the base model to 9th gen cpu and all that?
Any 2017 27 inch iMac, be it 3.4, 3.5 or 3.8, can it be upgraded to the i7 processor? and also upgrade the graphics card to a Radeon Pro 580 with 8GB of VRAM?
+Snazzy Labs well dude, you blew it big time 1:02 it says 2560x1440 because it is on hidpi mode which actually is that resolution x2 = 5120x2880,i have made myself a hackintosh laptop which has a 4k display and on system report it says 1920x1080 but its hidpi(it looks extremely sharp,1920x1080 *2=3840x2160) ,if you go to about this Mac-> displays thats where you see the resolution mine says 3840x2160
Harry Nafpaktitis this isn't true, the mac pro has display port 1.4 and 5k requires dp1.5.
+Harry Nafpaktitis Yeah you're right. Native on that display is 4K. But still Not 5K.
instead of buying that $40 drive cable, just use ssd fan control! free app!
Lol It doesn't work it's a encrypted protocol and the app only works for the old version of osx actually like very old versions of osx
ur wicked u give us mac users hope again thanks & keep up the good work
Hey guys, can this be done to a 2017 4K iMac? I've got the base model and was wondering if it would at least be possible to replace the rpm hard drive. Please help a brother get thru this quarantine. Thanks.
