Apple iMac Desktop - MC309HN-A (Core i5, 4GB, 500GB, 21.5inch, Radeon HD6750)

Apple introduced the first iMac more than a decade ago. And the design philosophy remains the same: an all-in-one that’s as powerful as it is beautiful.

21.5 inch display
Today’s iMac has come a long way from the first 15-inch iMac.Take one look and you’ll see just how far.A 21.5 inch display with edge-to-edge glass covers nearly the entire front of the enclosure.When all you see is the display, nothing gets between you and what’s onscreen.Movies, TV shows, FaceTime HD video calls, websites, photos — everything looks stunning on the widescreen 16:9 iMac display.

LED backlighting
The more pixels a display has, the more light those pixels need to achieve the best picture possible. And that’s exactly what the LED backlighting in iMac does: It pushes light through each pixel with remarkable brightness and efficiency.

High resolution
The 21.5-inch iMac features 1920-by-1080 HD resolution. Apple engineers could simply have stretched that resolution up and out for the 27-inch iMac. Instead, they took the display well beyond HD with 2560-by-1440 resolution.

Details that matter

Edge-to-edge glass
The glass that surrounds the LED-backlit display wraps around the edge of the aluminum enclosure.

Tapered pedestal
Another victory over clutter, the finely tapered pedestal practically disappears on the desktop.

Integrated speakers
Built-in speakers deliver loud, clear sound with notable bass response and very little distortion.

Evolution of iMac.
It was a great idea then, and it’s a great idea now. The all-in-one design of the first flat-panel iMac cleaned up the desktop. It put everything you need display, processor, graphics card, hard drive, optical drive, memory, and more — inside one simple enclosure. Today, iMac is the gold standard for an all-in-one desktop computer.

Seamless enclosure.
While you’ll find a collection of ports on the back of iMac, you won’t find much else. A seamless, precision-forged enclosure makes the back one continuous aluminum surface. And there’s only one cord: the power cord.

Cool, quiet components.
The widescreen iMac display allows more room to separate the two hottest components, the CPU and the GPU. This keeps things cool inside the iMac enclosure. Apple engineers also implemented an intelligent control system that monitors temperatures and delivers just the right amount of airflow to critical components.

Intel Core i5 processors.
Powered by quad-core processors, the new iMac is our fastest yet — up to 70 percent faster than the previous generation.1 Every model in the lineup comes standard with the latest Intel Core i5 quad-core processor. Add up to 4GB of DDR3 memory and an ultrafast 500GB solid-state drive,2 and you’ve got an all-in-one that can handle just about anything.

All-new advanced AMD Radeon HD graphics.
With advanced AMD Radeon HD graphics processors across the line, iMac performs even better than before up to three times better, in fact.1 So you see more frames per second in 3D games, and you can edit HD home videos with more speed and responsiveness than you ever thought possible.

The new FaceTime HD camera.The better to see you with.
Get more of your friends in the picture with crisp, widescreen HD video. The new FaceTime HD camera lets you make FaceTime video calls in 720p resolution. The picture is so clear, it will look and feel almost like you’re in the same room.
