Another first time option is a graphics card with 16Gb of memory using the newest AMD Radeon Pro 5000 series.

SSDs now come standard with the 27-inch iMac across the line and they give you performance of up to 3.4GB/s. Apple customers will be pleased to select the new 8TB SSD option, and the company says this is four times the capacity of the previous generation model.

The model’s Retina 5K display comes with True Tone and a nano-texture option we first saw with the Pro Display XDR. It has 14.7 million pixels driving a billion colors at 500 nits of brightness. The nano-texture cuts down on glare similar to matte displays.

    Wow, finally no reflection! But is it really similar to matte displays? Someone has tested that?
