Chosen Solution

Hi, I have: iMac 27-inch, (Late 2012), 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5. I would like to Upgrade my CPU to Core i7 ?? GHz.

  1. Is it possible ?
  2. What CPU is recommend for playing 4K movies ?

This swap out should work fine. I’d get one out of a iMac in case there are firmware mods on the chip. Here’s how to switch it out: iMac Intel 27" EMC 2546 CPU Replacement
