Apples Released iPad's, iMacs and OS X Yosemite

Over night Apple has had a field day with its new products releasing the iPad Air 2, iPad Mini 3, 5K iMac, Yosemite and iOS 8.1.

Apple is boosting about there 5K display which is powered by an AMD R9 M290x, which is  agood thing for the Hackintosh world but I personally think its a bad option. NVIDIA Maxwell GPU's have proven to be amazing, low power drawer and get temperature's compared to the AMD counter parts.

Yet again the these products are coming in at Apples hefty price tag and no chance for upgrades later on. This is something that is not really exciting, maybe seeing Apple actually upgrade there Mac Pro to the new X99 chipset would be a better path in my opinion. 

If your an Apple fan boy you will most likely be creaming your pants at apples latest release today and will hand them money with out even thinking. There is nothing wrong with that at all just do some research first as AMD GPU's may not be the best thing for you.

iMac refresh could include 5K display and AMD graphics

Apple is due to refresh its line of iMac all in one systems later this month, alongside the launch of new iPads and Macbooks so as you would expect, the rumor mill is starting to turn. Apparently, the new 27 Inch high end iMac will feature a 5K screen, much like the one Dell showed offa few weeks ago, Apple may also be switching from Nvidia to AMD for its GPUs.

Intel’s Broadwell CPUs aren’t available just yet so this year’s iMacs will be getting a refreshed Haswell CPU, in addition to a 5120×2880 screen. For those of you who don’t know, this resolution contains 14,745,600 pixels, making it significantly more demanding than 4K, which contains 8,294,400 pixels.

Apple re-kindled its relationship with AMD last year with the launch of the Mac Pro, which featured AMD’s FirePro graphics cards. However, it looks like Apple is interested in AMD’s non professional GPUs as well, according to new rumors, low end 1080p iMacs will stick to Intel’s Iris Pro graphics while higher end models will use R9 or R7 series chips.

For the last couple of years, Apple has been using Nvidia’s GPUs in its systems, current iMacs and Macbook Pros use the GT 750m Kepler based chips.

The refreshed iMac and Macbook models will presumably ship with Apple’s already announced, OS X Yosemite update as development recently entered the final stages.
