Lives for gear
I would like to know if for my type of work which is mainly recording classical music by the use of Pro Tools including a Merging Horus (16ch at 32Bit/96kHz) if there is a need to spend more money on a 6-core i7 or is an i5 sufficient.
Also what about the optional 10 Gig ethernet adaptor of will the stock Gig ethernet just be fine as well. I presume the i7 is getting hotter then the i5 which might result in fan(s) kicking in therefore producing unwanted noise!? Note: might use occasionally also Logic Pro and Final Cut Pro

Hello,
I need to buy a new Mac and my max budget is $2000.
I'm reading a lot about the new mac mini i7 dual-core processors, which are a lot slower than the late 2012 models and also slower than the iMac i5 quad-core model: http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i7-4578U-vs-Intel-Core-i5-4570

I'm a programmer so I'll be using software like, photoshop, Xcode, VirtualBox, and some other related. I don't play games and I don't edit video, so from what I've read the new Intel Iris Graphics is enough. Am I right?

So I can choose from:
![]() Benchmark Mac Mini I3 Versus I7 Audio Apps 2017
Mac Mini - $1400 (and plug two 24 monitors getting near my $2000 budget)
Intel Core i7 Dual‑Core 3,0 GHz (Turbo Boost till 3,5 GHz)
16 GB SDRAM LPDDR3 at 1600 MHz
1TB Fusion Drive
Intel Iris Graphics
OR
iMac 27' - $2100 (for this price, a little over my budget, I can choose from 16GB RAM or Fusion Drive, both costs $200 more)
Intel Core i5 quad-core 3,2 GHz, Turbo Boost till 3,6 GHz
16 GB de SDRAM DDR3 at 1600 MHz - 2x 8 GB
1Tb Serial ATA 1 TB at 7200 rpm
NVIDIA GeForce GT 755M 1GB GDDR5
I'm more into the Mac Mini, because I can have two 24' monitors (not as good as the iMac monitor of course) and take advantage og both 16GB RAM and Fusion Drive.

In the other hand, iMac has a pretty good monitor and a better CPu (video card is also better but like I said I'm not into games and video editing).
Also iMac will probably see it's new model this year while the Mac Mini was launched recently.
Based on all this info, please help me choose which will fulfill my needs better, fundamenting your choice.
