Pros: If you opt for this when spec'ing out your new iMac it will cost you an additional $600 (slightly less with an education discount). Other vendors have this upgrade for ~250 but Newegg has the best price by far at ~159. Upgrading the existing was easy (it is the only user replaceable item in the iMac,,.well one that doesn't void the warranty). Booted up like a champ and I have been flying around Lightroom & Photoshop since. If you are on the fence, just do it. I have to give wicked props to the G.Skill online chat available through Newegg. They were quick to respond and let me know what I needed to order to work with the iMac. Thanks again
Cons: None what so ever.
