... No one should be grabbing these at any price point, seriously. PC liquidation stores that carry old & refurbed desktop computers with similar spec goes about 1/3 of that price. Sure, this iMac may have decent display, but... ughh
No, this one doesn't have the 4k, its a 1080p screen. Its an absolute garbage computer for a garbage price.

It's still a turd, but at least it's got an SSD instead of a 5400rpm laptop drive.
