Those screwdriver-wielding destructacons at iFixit have posted their teardown of the brand-new iMac with Retina 5K Display (https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/iMac+Intel+27-Inch+Retina+5K+Display+Teardown/30260). On a scale of 1 to 10, it has a repairability score of 5, which is the same as its lower-resolution sibling, the non-Retina 27-inch iMac (https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/iMac+Intel+27-Inch+EMC+2639+Teardown/17828).</p><p>
The new Retina 5K iMac (just announced Thursday (http://www.macworld.com/article/2835007/hands-on-the-new-27-inch-imac-with-5k-retina-display-shows-stunning-detail.html)) has the same RAM replacement slots as the rest of the iMac lineup, so you can upgrade the RAM yourself without having to take the entire thing apart. iFixit has a helpful guide (https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/iMac+Intel+27-Inch+EMC+2639+Teardown/17828) created for the last generation that you can follow.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2835228/ifixit-tears-down-the-new-27-inch-imac-with-retina-5k-display.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
