Some old software, when migrated to new Mac hardware simply can not run.

Especially if your software stack can transition to 64 bit speed and run in Catalina. That being said - the $800 Mac Mini will run circles around your 2011 iMac performance-wise. Add it only when your benchmarks prove you need it - it’s almost always cheaper to delay buying and only buy when your time to fix the software causing RAM to blow up is worth more to you than the cost of more RAM.

SSD - always a great investment, plus they are almost always fungible - you can put them in newer gear with little to no degradation on speed if they still have life.Given you’ve already done the work once, you will be the best to know. So thanks for helping me get there.ĭecisions. I am convinced that putting the $400 into the iMac is not the best idea. I could sell the iMac for probably around $500-$600 (and would have no problem justifying the $200-$400 expense), but then I'd either have to buy another large monitor or live with just 2 24-inchers. I really like the idea of the Mac Mini, but I can't justify the $800-$1000 expense. But once this iMac starts having trouble opening big Photoshop files while I have a bunch of files open elsewhere or performing operations in Illustrator on complex drawings (which I'm just starting to see the beginnings of), it's no longer "high performing". Like i said, I have a 2017 MBP that is great and this iMac is still pretty good for my purposes (no gaming or 3d animation). My main goal is to have 2 high-performing machines. There are some awesome answers/comments/info here - thanks everyone. I'm wondering if anyone has done any similar upgrades on a machine with close specs (specifically the age)? If so, did you get the boost in performance you were hoping for or is it just asking too much from a motherboard that old? I'm considering dumping about $400 into it to add an SSD (and run both in RAID0), max out the RAM an replace the thermal sensor. It runs pretty well now, but is just starting to slow down (and pales in comparison to my 2017 MBP). I have a 27" 2011 (i7 3.4ghz 24GB RAM) iMac that I just replaced the drives (1 SSD and 1HDD) in 2 years ago.
