I just ordered the 27 inch iMac with the 2.9 GHZ Core i5 CPU and a 1tb Fusion Drive. I ordered 32 GB of ram from Crucial. Should I have opted for the Core i7? I dont do any major video editing or anything like that. I have a very large iTunes catalog which is connect by a WD My Studio Mirror Edition drive which I will upgrade soon also.

I now have a 2010 iMac with the Core i3 so I think I will still see a nice improvement.

A little late to be asking about CPU upgrades but I think you'll be very pleased with the i5 iMac. Congrats.

Thanks, I can still change it since it will not ship for a few weeks but wondered if it is worth it.
