Absolutely clueless when it comes to PC architecture.....have been an iMac person for a LONG time.....and I'm in the market for a something new.....so, here's my question.

3.8GHz 8-core 10th-generation Intel Core i7 processor
Turbo Boost up to 5.0GHz
8GB 2666MHz DDR4 memory, configurable up to 128GB

Radeon Pro 5500 XT with 8GB of GDDR6 memory
Two Thunderbolt 3 ports
