iMac 2020 specs leak reveals powerful new upgrades

(Prototype credit: MacRumors)

Specifications for the iMac 2020 may have just been revealed in a Geekbench listing, detailing that Apple'southward side by side all-in-ane computer volition have a reasonably powerful spec.

Spotted by our sibling site Tom'south Hardware, the leaked benchmark (for the rather uninteresting OpenCL test) details an unnamed iMac running an Intel Core i9-10910 CPU and sporting an AMD Radeon Pro 5300 graphics carte du jour. With the processor having ten cores and 20 threads to bring to impact tasks, it looks similar it could exist a solid desktop machine for creative professionals.

The Geekbench list shows the Core i9-10910 CPU. Tom'south Hardware speculates that this could exist a customized version of the tiptop-end processors in Intel's Comet Lake-S family of fries, running with a base of operations clock speed of 3.6GHz and a top clock of four.7GHz. That ways information technology runs at some 29% faster than the standard Core i9-10900.

Tom'due south Hardware noted that the chip could be a 95W processor, which sits it between the lower-powered 65W Comet Lake-South and the gutsier 125W CPUs. Such a custom flake is likely Apple's attempt to have a CPU that is energy-efficient when it needs to be but can crank upward its power for bursts of higher performance when necessary.

It's interesting that the iMac 2020 could accept a custom Intel CPU, considering that Apple is transitioning towards making its ain ARM-based chips for Mac and eventually move abroad from relying on Intel processors.

Every bit for the graphics, the Radeon Pro 5300 appears to be a desktop variant of the Radeon Pro 5300M that's designed for laptop use. Tom's Hardware highlighted that the iMac's Radeon Pro 5300 should, therefore, be based on the latest Navi 14 GPU and come with 1,280 stream processors.

The Geekbench listing had the graphics carte du jour clocked at 1,600Mhz, and noted information technology has 4GB of onboard memory. That's not the near powerful graphics card around, but information technology's worth noting that the Radeon Pro GPUs are designed for professional graphics work such equally CAD tasks or video rendering rather than high-cease gaming; AMD is slated to reveal its next large gaming graphics card in September.

All this ways the iMac 2020, which is expected to sport a new blueprint and be revealed at some point subsequently on in 2020, could be a major upgrade over its predecessor. The Geekbench list doesn't provide any single-core and multi-core CPU test results, but we expect its 10-core modern Intel processor to deliver strong operation.

We're looking forward to seeing what Apple can cook up with its next iMac, especially given the radical look of the Mac Pro 2019. But nosotros'll need to wait at least a few months before the Cupertino coiffure takes the covers off the iMac 2020.
