All-in-One desktop with 21.5-inch IPS display
This Apple iMac (Late 2013) integrates a 21.5-inch glossy LED-backlit IPS panel at 1920 x 1080 resolution into a silver aluminium enclosure. A 3.1 GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor and 8 GB of DDR3 memory handle everyday productivity, while a 1 TB hard drive provides bulk storage. The system ships with macOS 10.12 Sierra and includes a USB keyboard and optical mouse.
Graphics limited to NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M
The discrete GPU is a NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M equipped with 1 GB of dedicated GDDR5 memory. This configuration suits general desktop work, media playback and light creative tasks but cannot drive modern 3D workloads or high-resolution external displays beyond the built-in panel. Buyers who need more graphics performance should consider a different system.
Sustained workloads constrained by mobile-class
Under continuous load the mobile-class GT 750M and mechanical hard drive become the limiting factors; thermal headroom in the slim all-in-one chassis restricts prolonged high clock speeds. The 8 GB DDR3 ceiling (maximum supported 16 GB) also caps memory-intensive sessions. This iMac is best suited to bursty office workflows rather than extended rendering or compute jobs.

Questions about this item
How does the 3.1 GHz quad-core i7 perform in everyday workloads?
The 22 nm Haswell Core i7-4770S runs at 3.1 GHz with four cores and 8 MB L3 cache, giving strong single-thread speed and enough multi-thread headroom for photo editing, light video work and general multitasking.
What do the two Thunderbolt ports actually connect to?
Each Thunderbolt port carries data and Mini DisplayPort video, so you can daisy-chain external storage, displays or docks that use the same connector.
Can the 21.5-inch chassis be opened to add more RAM or a 2.5-inch drive?
The all-in-one design seals the logic board behind the display; memory slots are not user-accessible and there is no 2.5-inch bay, so the 8 GB DDR3 and 1 TB hard drive are fixed.
