The 27-inch model proves a bit easier to upgrade: it still has four user-accessible RAM slots, still leaves people who opt out of the Fusion Drive or SSD upgrades an empty PCIe slot to use, and still uses a socketed Intel CPU for those of you who want to take the trouble to upgrade that component yourselves after the fact. However, the low-end iMac's use of Intel's Iris Pro 5200 integrated GPUs means that it uses one of Intel's R-series CPUs, and those CPUs only come in a soldered-on ball-grid array (BGA) package. You can still access the computer's two RAM slots if you're brave enough to attempt the teardown process (which includes tearing apart and replacing some foam padding), and Apple has included an empty PCIe slot on the base model where last year's model only had an empty spot on the system board. One of our chief complaints about last year's 21.5-inch iMac was how difficult it was to upgrade, and that remains true of this year's model.
