Apple is now ready for the press event which is a couple of days away. Since so many days there were speculations about what the company is going to announce. This time its turn of the iMacs.

The iMacs were last updated by Apple in October 2015, the smaller Macs were equipped with retina screens and the larger models got Skylake processor chips.

Presently the focus is on next iMac launch event or the 2016 iMac update. Mostly this update will be about the launch of the iMacs in the UK, tech specs, prices, leaked photos and videos and the expected new features.

It is believed that MacBook Pro will be at the top of the agenda but there can be an introduction of new iMacs as well. The entire Mac range will witness refreshment. The new iMacs were not introduced during the iPhone 7 event which signifies that Apple will conduct the special event for iMacs.

Customers want Apple to choose Intel based CPU's. We can also see the appearance of AMD in few of the iMac models. The AMD Zen processor has a tremendous processing power. There are 16 threads and 8 cores in the processor which is a massive amount of raw processing power. Zen CPU will be available in top-speck iMacs.

There is going to be mass production of the Keby Lake after Sky Lake in 2016. Cannon lake processor shall be featured next year. In 2018 there shall be Ice Lake and may be Tiger Lake in 2019. These are all Intel processors. A14 nm process is used by Cable Lake as compared to Cannon Lake which uses the 10nm process which is more accurate.

Nothing is sure till date, earlier Apple declared the introduction of Kaby Lake Processor but we can't forget that Apple skipped Broadwell and this is common in the chip sector.

There shall be two chipsets Polaris 10 and Polaris 11. Polaris 10 is perfect for iMacs. Everything shall be clear when the October 27 event begins at 6PM UK time.
