Anyone still using a base 2019 iMac 5K?

Curious to see how many owners of the base 2019 iMac 5K are still out there. I'm about to upgrade, mainly because I hate the fusion drive and need some extra power for video editing.

Still, I'd like to know how owners of this machine are working with it 4 years later.

Still love my iMac (specs below). I ordered mine BTO and specced it out as much as I could afford so that I could use it for gaming (bootcamped into Windows) as well... so I'm not sure if that falls within your definition of a "base" iMac. Of course, I obviously don't use it for gaming, anymore; I have a separate Windows based gaming laptop for that, these days -- but for anything requiring that I can do under macOS, the iMac still works quite well. Runs Windows 11 decently, too, even though it's not technically supported.

I also intentionally specced mine with a straight SSD instead of going fusion; at no point have I ever trusted the concept of a fusion drive.
