Hello

What upgrade should I get for iMac 21 4K?

There is several options:
- 3.0 GHz quad-core i5 (7th generation) versus 3.4 GHz quad-core i5 (7th generation) versus 3.6 GHz quad-core i7 (7th generation)
- 8 GB RAM versus 16 GB RAM
- 1 TB Fusion Drive versus 512 GB SSD

I'm thinking of getting cheaper 3.0 GHz quad-core i5 and more RAM/SSD.

Here is 4 builds:

16GB 2400MHz DDR4
512GB SSD

What do you think?

For general usage, no professional tasks (only some photo editing).

Thanks a lot
