I wouldn't count on it. Look for the i5-6267U with Iris 550 graphics. And this is what you'd hope for. They could even go for the i5-6260U with Iris 540 graphics. There isn't that much difference between the two. The latter is a 15 W part and the fo…

Are these the chips with Iris Pro in them?

I don't see the 24' iMac making a return. As for the upgrade to the 5,400 rpm hard drive, your only option is to custom order a 256 GB PCIe SSD for $200 more or a 512 GB PCIe SSD for $500. The minimum they could do is offer their 1 TB Fusion Drive a…

The idea of the HTPC isn't dead. See I feel Apple didn't go with a quad-core Mac mini partly because of Intel's focus on the GPU on certain chips. The mobile quad-core chips had HD 4600 and were also 2 watts higher than the Ivy Bridge mobile quads.

If a Mac mini were to be released in 2016 (probably in the later part of the year), what would be the most likely graphics chip to be used in it? I honestly don't think it would be the Iris Pro 580 as that would be reserved for the retina 4K iMac gi…

I don't even know what the point of the MacBook is. Paying that much for a Core M processor is insane. I also don't know what the point of the iPad Pro is and I think others agree with me from a rumor I've heard about sales figures. As far what I'd …

The only thing is that I don't really feel like waiting another year or two for the possibility of a new mini.

I'm debating whether I want to stay with Apple or go back to Windows with an Intel NUC (the only PC I have interest in), although I am leaning towards just getting another Mac mini. A 2014 Mac mini with 16 GB of RAM and a 256 GB PCIe SSD would be go…

Here's the problem I have... Apple is going to make the mini an utter piece of garbage imho next time around if they even update it. The base mini will probably have a Core M processor in it. Are you kidding me? The minimum should be an Iris 540 and…

The next Intel NUC is rumored to have Iris Pro 580. The next Mac mini should do the same but knowing Apple they'll probably put in a Core M, make it fanless, and turn it into a POS.

I don't have high expectations for the mini. I didn't get a 2012 quad-core because I just got my dual-core mini a year earlier and was happy with it once I upgraded with 8 GB of RAM and put in my own SSD (a Samsung 470 128 GB). I guess all I want is…

How long would the R9 M395X last do you think realistically?

How is the top model AMD card vs. the top model nVidia cards? Thinking of getting a 5K iMac and maybe I should just let go.

I'd like a new Mac mini but I'm wondering if I should just get a 4k or 5k iMac. At least with the 5k iMac, I can upgrade the memory and have it for a while longer. 16 GB is good for a long time but I can have up to 64 GB in this thing. I'll give it …

The huge upside to the Asus AiO is that it has a dedicated graphics card though the downside is that it contains bloatware. When the Iris Pro 580 comes out though, it should be a significant improvement over the Iris Pro 6200 but not the nVidia GeFo…

Wizard and to me that's all that matters. I want either the best integrated chips offered or the best discrete chips. Everything else doesn't matter. It's like mid-grade gasoline in my opinion.

A friend and I were discussing Intel's onboard graphics and their improvement of them with each generation. We came to an agreement that they went from an F to about a C- now. If Intel continues to work on things, they will be at about a B I'd say i…

Marvin - I agree completely (and I'm sure others agree) that the 5,400rpm hard drive is completely and utterly unacceptable. There should be a 128 GB PCIe SSD minimum with options up to 512 GB for the 21.5" and up to 1 TB for the 27". Consider the f…

Apple has hooked me with the 4k iMac and I am very interested in it. I am not sure I'm really interested in the mini anymore because I don't think Apple will provide what I want. I mean are they going to give me Iris 550? Even if they do, I'd rather…
