The hype train for Apple's iPhone 7 has been slowing down and consumers are now focusing on the other products, which we haven't got any news recently. Will the Apple iMac 2016 coming around this October with beefed up specs?

There are several rumors regarding the said update to Apple's iMac lineup. A number of community sources like Mac World said that iMac 2016 is due to be revealed this coming October. The new iMac is allegedly going to be sporting more powerful graphics chip.

The report stated that Advanced Micro Devices or simply AMD, the company behind the the powerful lineup of ATI Graphics Cards, will be joining the project to power Apple's new set of PCs. No details have been disclosed however as to which chips will be put in use.

WCCFTech, however, reported that possibilities point to AMD supplying Apple with AMD Radeon 400 Series Polaris GPUs so it could be safely assumed that the gaming experience for the upcoming iMac will be as pleasing as possible, given that more support for Mac OSX will be given to soon to be released PC games.

There are also speculations about the Korean company LG, supplying Apple with monitors that will have whopping 5K resolutions.

Bloomberg also reported that there's a good probability of Apple, revealing the new iMac model despite having their hands full with the new hardware and software releases like the iPhone 7 and iOS 10.

Along with the iMac 2016, rumors also has it that the Cupertino-based company will also launch the new MacBook Air this year. Possibly along with the PC, sooner or later.

The same case with the MacBook Pro 2016 rumors, the iMac 2016 is also believed to be sporting the latest Intel Kaby Lake processor, which in turn, may cause a slight delay in the release date if ever Apple already has something hidden from the consumers right now.

While none of the information have solid proof yet, sooner or later this year, Apple will be providing consumers more detail regarding its plans with the upcoming iMac 2016 as well as its other line of products such as the iPad, MacBook, and possibly, even an iPhone 7S Pro.
