    Well done! It's so much more satisfying than buying a new computer!

    Why on earth did you remove the screen with the iMac standing up? It's just an unnecessary risk for no reason of the display slipping and dropping or ripping the display cable. Please anyone doing this lay it flat or put a wedge in between the stand to keep it facing upward!

      I did indeed make the LinusTechTips error when doing this, I think a wedge would be the best option as laying it on its back would likely have a similar issue as having it standing up. Unless something was propping it up so its level. :)

    Hi 😊 ! I just found a 27inch 2015 5k imac on fb marketplace for 150$ (cnd $) just a small crack on screen. But is that a good deal ? And is that model very good ? I mean should i go for 2017 imac instead ? I love upgrading imac so im not sure which models doesnt allow you to upgrade 😢
    * what i wanna do with the imac is simple photoshop, excel, microsoft word, streaming content like netflix/disney+/prime video/paramount, browsing the internet…

    I have an iMac 27" late 2015 and I'm thinking of upgrading it just wondering what's the best CPU and NVME SSD for it. CPU: i7 6700k? & NVME: Samsung 990 Pro?

    I already have the 4 GHz i7 on mine, but I wish there was a way to use this old thing as a monitor for a modern Mac Mini.

      This old thing still works like a charm 9 years later. All thou it may sound like an aeroplane trying to take off at times :)

    So why didn't you replace the old hard drive with a SSD?

    • @mrnobody9821

      HD runs the OS I think and he might have had no way to load the OS onto the SSD

    • @star__sh
      @star__sh Před 6 měsíci

      probably because the hard drive on these models causes the fan to run at full speed without a special adapter

    • @ljpaewai3863

      probably because its a fusion drive and after adding 1TB of nvme is there any point

      it has a apple introduced type I forget what it's called. But it can be adapted to NVME and is pretty fast too!
