Nisam kupio novi kompjuter od 2010. ali to se sve promenilo početkom ovog meseca. Nikada nisam posedovao iMac, ali činjenica da 21.5-inčna verzija ima mogućnost apgrejdovanja RAM-a mi je olakšala odluku. RAM od 3D gigabajta mi je stigao poštom u petak i bio sam baš naložen da sam poboljšam računar... dok nisam pogledao video ovog [tehjutjubera Kvina Nelsona](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knMM9dRwIH4). Sada se osećam kao glupan.

Nelson me je prevazišao u svakom mogućem smislu, rastavljajući dvadesetsedmoinčni iMac i pretvarajući ga u najmoćniji iMac koji je čovek video. Nelson je zamenio iMac-ov procesor sa Intel i7, dodao SSD od dva terabajta i RAM od 64 gigabajta. Rekao je da su ga delovi koštali 3400 dolara, ali gotovo dve hiljade dolara manje nego kompjuter iste konfiguracije sklopljen u Eplu (5,299 $).

Footnote #1: I actually bought the mid-grade model. At the time, I wasn’t sure the CPU coolers were the same across all 27” models. I have since learned that they are; so if you buy the cheapest 5K iMac, you can do all the upgrades I mention in this video without issue.

Footnote #2: This is not an instructional disassembly video. I recommend checking the guides on iFixit. They are well illustrated—provide adequate caution and warning for tricky areas—and have a community section where people provide advice. At the time of this video, there is no updated guide for the 2017 iMac; however, it's very similar to the 2014-2015 A1419 model. The only big difference is the screw placement on the motherboard. Just take your time finding all of the screws (one is hidden through the gold hole in the middle of the board) and you'll be fine.

Footnote #3: A little drama that wasn't included in the video is that the first time around, the CPU got bumped out of the socket when I screwed in the cooler, so the CPU wasn't seated correctly and the computer didn't boot. Upon disassembling the machine again, I saw the CPU was out of the socket and partially bent. I bent the CPU back (silicon bends easily without damaging, luckily), reinserted it into the socket, and was more careful when I tightened the CPU cooler the second time. It's easy to wiggle the CPU out of place when installing the cooler, so be careful—and if it feels too hard to tighten the CPU socket, stop—something is wrong.

The Best 2017 iMac Apple Doesn't Sell!

Nelsonov projekat nije za one sa slabim srcem, ali opet ne predstavlja kvantnu fiziku. Ako ste imalo majstoričavi i nemate problem da skinete iMac-ov displej (nekoliko alata mnogo olakšava posao), procesor i RAM se lako ugrađuju. Ugradnja dodatnog SSD-a takođe nije teško, ali zahteva da imate adapter i termalni senzor kako biste bili sigurni da iMac-ov RAM ne radi na punoj brzini sve vreme.

Nakon što je poboljšao svoj kompjuter, Nelson kaže da je njegov jedinstveni iMAC bolji od svakog fabrički sklapanog. Neću krenuti u frankenštajnovski poduhvat sa mojim kompom, ali me je Nelsonov uspeh dodatno ohrabrio da u narednih nekoliko godina dodam par komponenti i izvučem još života iz njega.
