Great video! I'm pretty sold on upgrading my 2017 iMac 21.5-inch (3.6 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7, 16GB Ram, Radeon Pro 560 4GB Graphics, 1TB Fusion Drive) with this new 27-inch 5K iMac. Bigger/higher resolution screen, upgradable RAM, incredible graphics upgrade, SSD standard, seems like a no brainer. Can't wait for you next video because my biggest question is whether it'd be worth it to upgrade to the 10-Core for a video editor. I edit in Resolve 16 Studio, Blackmagic RAW 4K files, and I use the Thunderblade external SSD. Edits usually go fine until I do any denoising and it's all shot to hell. Exports seem to take a while too, but I do downscale to 1080 if that makes a difference. I assumed that was all graphics-related, and was going to pass on the 10-Core, but gonna wait until your results to see if it's worth the cash. Only big disappointment without actually using this new computer is the minuscule number of Thunderbolt-3 ports. What the heck is that about?
2020 iMac 5700xt and i7 or i9 is still a beast today in 2023 and into 2024 (for a good price). Of couse Mac Studio would be better but again, that GPU is stil a beast!
Thank you for adding a Logic X benchmark in there! It’s rare to see those in Mac reviews but means a lot to us dealing with music making/production. Great overall content! 🤘 keep it up
Here is a comparison between the 10 core iMac Pro (mine) and the iMac 2020 10 core (your benchmarks): Geekbench 5 iMac Pro 10 core iMac 27 10 core Single 1158 1271 Multi 9658 9737 Graphics-Metal 56631 57898 Cinebench R20 4304 5535 (the graphics is the Pro Vega 64)
Bottom line- if you have a 10 core (or higher) iMac Pro, it’s probably not worth upgrading, but it would be silly to by a 10 core iMac Pro today. My best guess is that they will discontinue the iMac Pro by the end of this year. I thought about selling my iMac Pro and getting one of these, but I would be giving up 2 TB3 ports, which are important to some.
$3,500 iMac that can play 131 tracks is simply mind boggling. It used to cost $8,000 or more for this machine and only a few people can afford it. ✓Finally the long years wait is worth it. Technology is keep going, and I believe Apple give this last super BIG performance shot with last Intel Machine that pretty affordable with Pandemic. I will order tonight and start making some music.
Alex Carlito those dates are extremely conservative. I ordered mine on Saturday with an expected ship date of mid September and I got a notice this morning that mine is already shipped and on its way.
I noticed that you I can't buy a 16" macbook pro right now. I keep getting redirected or receive errors on the Apple site. Tried on Chrome and Safari. Wonder if they're updating their site for a new model or update....
Great video as always, I was kind of hoping to have your recommendation on 8 core vs 10 core. I'm wanting to buy a new computer ASAP and have been waiting on this, can't quite decide if the 10 core is worth the extra money. I know I'm definitely getting the 5700 XT with 32GB RAM (third party of course).
@@MaxTechOfficial Thanks, I was leaning in this direction based on your previous videos. Especially as I use mostly Adobe graphic design software that does not seem to really utilize the multiple cores like other software.
David Cox sounds amazing! How much tb storage did you go with and are you using the gigabit! Yeah I’m not too sure if I want to go 10 core a part of me wants to and a part of me doesn’t ahaha 😂
I just ordered the iMac, because I want that giant 5k screen, 16gb of v-ram and the ability to use boot camp. I’m also working remote. I look forward to getting a 2021 MacBook Pro and maybe a 2022 iMac.
Would you recommend the “bottom of the line” 2020 8-core iMac or the “top of the line” 2020 10-core iMac for video editors. Really just want to know if the upgrade to 10-cores would be worth the extra $400 and if I’d be beneficial to upgrade the graphics card. Thanks!
Thank you the clear, fast-paced and info-rich content. And for not slowing it down with jokes and witty asides, unlike some other shows where the hosts have an inflated sense of their own cuteness.
Can't wait for the 8 Vs 10 core comparison! I ordered the 10-core myself due to using Autodesk 3d software on bootcamp, as it is no longer supported on mac os. It uses the CPU to render due to only supporting Nvidia graphics cards when modelling and raytracing. I also really abuse my Macs with hugely complex Photoshop files and large lightroom editing sessions. Hope this choice will pay off!
Please let us now the fan & thermal performance as well! Have heard some very worrying things out there (tally-ho tech / short circuit) about loud fans during idling and poor heat control during sustained load!
Great video . I’m still waiting on mine. I have a question though : how do you think your 10 core configuration will handle 5.9k from the Canon c500 mark ii? That is the camera I plan to use the most with this computer. No one seems to have the answer.
please do the comparison between the new 10 core iMac and the 2017 10 core iMac Pro and also the Lightroom export test is not what most photographers complain about its the time it takes to build 1:1 previews from the RAW files.
*HELP* So, correct me if I got this wrong, but as a music producer using Logic Pro X, I don’t need to pay much attention to the graphics specs. Instead, focus on the RAM and Cores? 10 and above?
From a cost perspective if buying the iMac 2020 with an emphasis more on gaming in bootcamp rather than video editing I’m assuming the upgrade of the graphics to 5700XT is more important as the upgrade to the 10-core i9 cpu, correct? Curious about any noticeable difference in gaming FPS with the 8-core i7 vs 10-core i9 with the same 5700XT graphics on both.
Just purchased imac with 5700xt graphics card because it just makes sense. I do care about the portability but I think I will wait and see how the macbook pros with ARM processors will do and purchase one later. With intel processors, I think power hungry tasks will be better handled by imac than macbook pro.
OT, but i downloaded R5 8k file and 4k 120fps. I could play and edit 8k in FCPX without a problem (Better performance setting), did not need to transcode it. 4k 120fps was a harder candy, it did not play smoothly at atll so I had to transcode it to ProRes. Machine: base iMac Pro (8 core)
definitely following, literally waiting for these guys to test out the r5 codec on this new iMac. Max Yuryev mentioned that it might be a perfect computer for this cameras codec but no test videos have been found yet 😣
Walker Jordan I am not even going through the trouble of transcoding and just shooting in the standard profile in 8-bit 4:2:0. Definitely losing out on all the great things this camera offers but can’t really afford to spend hours transcoding footage either😅 hopefully once we hear that this iMac works well with the R5 it’ll be in my cart ASAP.
Can you guys do comparison between 2020 Imac Pro 10core 65GB Ram & 16Gb Vega 64 with the Imac 2020. A lot of people are dumping there Imac pros and would be great to see which one would be better?
Was going to upgrade my 2019 i9 iMac for this 2020 iMac due to the T2 chip and 16g it vram. But after thinking it over I cancelled my order. And decided I’ll wait to see what Apple silicon has to offer. I don’t need boot camp. And my iMac is still covered for another 2yrs of apple care. I love the 5600m but due to Covid I don’t need that much power in the go any more.
Smart choice. If the 2019 iMac is still good enough to suite your needs then waiting is a good idea. Worst case scenario, you can just buy this same 2020 iMac later :)
Max, can i install mac os x on a TB3 drive and use it on my macbook pro and imac for working in the same files without using a NAS or cloud solution - or is the installation of a OS to a external drive only possible with the same device?
Sounds doable as long as you make sure drivers don’t become an issue. But what if you just put all your project files on it and shared those between the macs?
Mr. Sir wondering about driver issues as well.. you‘re right that would be the best way but my GF doesnt work like that ;) throwing all temp stuff on desktop (huge mess) have 100 tabs open in safari because „i‘ll need them“ and have tones of plugins and preferences in many creative cloud apps and other would need for constantly synchro all the things..
@@mvchael8300 For some people, yes, but not for most people. Besides, it may be the most powerful Intel Macbook Pro you can get before transitioning to Apple silicon, when there won't be any dedicated GPU.
Thanks for replying, but @@MaxTechOfficial not entirely correct. The W5700X option on the Mac Pro 2019 performs about 25% worse (46,000 vs 56,000 scores) on Geekbench when testing 'Vulkan' in bootcamp WIN10 when plugging in a dummy HDMI adapter into the HDMI port. I've ran the test many times. Note that it makes no difference in Open CL or when using MacOS X in Open CL or Metal.
Heads up that the Canon RAW Plugin 1.5 for Final Cut Pro X (latest version as of Aug 26) does not work with FCP X 10.4.9! Just updated my app and it will no longer display video for my CRL footage. According to the release Apple was using a pre-release version 2.0 of the Canon RAW Plugin, so keep in mind before updating!
My seven-year-old Mac mini needs a replacement over my 2018 MacBook Pro, so I’m going with the iMac. I’ll wait for Apple silicon in the MacBook Pro to escape the living hell of the butterfly keyboard.
I'll be damned if I buy this macs before the silicon processors are offered. I am still good to go with my 2014 mbp. I have to stick to 1080 videos though. 4k is too demanding.
I honestly don't understand why people are still using Macs for content creation in 2020, it's great for everyday use for non power users but super terrible for power users and cost a ton more.
If you are using FCPX to edited RED Raw footage you might check the RED Apple Workflow update for FCPX 10.4.9 www.red.com/download/red-apple-workflow-installer
These comparisons are fun to watch but seriously guys, comparing a laptop to a desktop makes no sense whatsoever. You know it. We know it. Who goes out to buy a computer and changes their mind between a laptop and desktop based on a few benchmarks!? The concept of the video is frankly ridiculous...
Yet a lot of people ask for this comparison year after year. I think many people would like to be portable but want to know how much performance they are loosing out on. Thankfully with the latest MacBooks it’s not much but you also pay for it.
I would love to see that comparison iMac 2020 (fully spec’s out) from this video vs to newest MacBook Pro M1 max full spec’s out. I’m thinking about upgrading and I don’t know if its worth the money
Sir please donate me an ipad i need it very badly.I'm a big fan of Maxtech.I watch your every single video.Please sir donate me an ipad😢😢May god bless you..
Clear, comprehensive, and technically sophisticated. Thanks for a _really helpful_ walk-through! If I weren't already a customer of your sponsor, I would become one ;-).
If I'm just editing 4k footage on a 1080p timeline then if I want to save money and plan on keeping this iMac for a very long time, is it better to spend money for the 10 core i9 or the 16gb video card?
DO A FORCED AIR COOLED MACBOOK PRO BEFORE AND AFTER. Ive noticed mine hovers the same temps with Mac fan control. Would we gain anything if we jacked on a mini cooling unit

My seven-year-old Mac mini needs a replacement over my 2018 MacBook Pro, so I’m going with the iMac. I’ll wait for Apple silicon in the MacBook Pro to escape the living hell of the butterfly keyboard.

I'll be damned if I buy this macs before the silicon processors are offered. I am still good to go with my 2014 mbp. I have to stick to 1080 videos though. 4k is too demanding.
At 9:14 did you say "iMac Pro"?
test the base of iMac. with core i5 with Radeon 5300M and 16gb ram. Please)
What about timeline performance in fps for RAW and color graded
where you get that apple wallpaper tho wide eye😳
The difference between fixing your voice with Logic Pro and being natural as Linus Tech Tips.
i love that you test more and more things but i think you shouldn’t include things that take 9 secs to finish
Yes, that's just the standard BruceX benchmark we've been using for years.
Please make the canon eos r5 editing test
I honestly don't understand why people are still using Macs for content creation in 2020, it's great for everyday use for non power users but super terrible for power users and cost a ton more.
They work great for us! I think many people use them for exclusive apps like logic, Xcode, or FCX
Yea a 5600 vs a 2080ti, and somehow they get excited for there 200 dollar video card, combined with terrible thermals apple is shit
Can someone tell me where to get the wallpaper at 0:16 please on the iMAC please
Link in the description below :)

If you are using FCPX to edited RED Raw footage you might check the RED Apple Workflow update for FCPX 10.4.9

Vs a 1500 dollar laptop that blows the MacBook away
please review asus rog strix ga15
Shy im watching this even of i cant afford it XD
Hello
First
These comparisons are fun to watch but seriously guys, comparing a laptop to a desktop makes no sense whatsoever. You know it. We know it. Who goes out to buy a computer and changes their mind between a laptop and desktop based on a few benchmarks!? The concept of the video is frankly ridiculous...
Yet a lot of people ask for this comparison year after year. I think many people would like to be portable but want to know how much performance they are loosing out on. Thankfully with the latest MacBooks it’s not much but you also pay for it.
Agreed my desktop, i7 9700k with 2080 super all water cooled is better than my x1 carbon, I like the carbon but for real work I hop on the desktop.

You are such an Best content creator ever man keep growing higher champ
I would love to see that comparison iMac 2020 (fully spec’s out) from this video vs to newest MacBook Pro M1 max full spec’s out. I’m thinking about upgrading and I don’t know if its worth the money
just the video i wamted to watch and the information i wanted to know 🤝
Sir please donate me an ipad i need it very badly.I'm a big fan of Maxtech.I watch your every single video.Please sir donate me an ipad😢😢May god bless you..
I just ordered 128 gigs of the RAM from you link provided.
Clear, comprehensive, and technically sophisticated. Thanks for a _really helpful_ walk-through! If I weren't already a customer of your sponsor, I would become one ;-).
I purchased the top model with the I9 processor and 1 terabyte SSD, I want to buy 128 gigs of RAM from Amazon. Does it matter what brand of RAM I use?
What if MacBook Pro 4100 $ vs 14000 $
If I'm just editing 4k footage on a 1080p timeline then if I want to save money and plan on keeping this iMac for a very long time, is it better to spend money for the 10 core i9 or the 16gb video card?
The only problem is the gpu never match the cpu
Why no Imac Pro videos?
Now how does the 2020 iPad Pro stack up against these two
DO A FORCED AIR COOLED MACBOOK PRO BEFORE AND AFTER. Ive noticed mine hovers the same temps with Mac fan control. Would we gain anything if we jacked on a mini cooling unit
