Best Answer

The current iMac models (aluminum and glass, introduced mid-2007) have either a 2.0GHz or 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor (for 20" and 24" models), or a 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Extreme processor (for high-end 24" model).

As of February 2010 the iMac range utilises the following processors:

◦ 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 3MB shared L2 cache

◦ 3.33GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 6MB shared L2 cache

◦ 2.66GHz quad-core Intel Core i5 processor with 8MB shared L3 cache; Turbo Boost dynamic performance up to 3.2GHz

◦ 2.8GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor with 8MB shared L3 cache; Turbo Boost dynamic performance up to 3.46GHz; Hyper-Threading for up to eight virtual cores
