4. I'll need/want to move forward sometime, and the new MacPro is overkill for my work.
5. iMac won't work for me because my CPU/IO are in a closet in the back of my control room.
6. Geekbench scores for Single Core Score MacMini=5667, my machine=2768 Multi Core Score MacMini=24323, my machine=24991,

So based on Geekbench scores the MacMini dusts my 12core in single core and nearly equals in multicore.

My main question was about the onboard graphics.
Which CPU model number did you use? My 12 Core MP Cheese-grater GB Scores are over 31k and I’ve got an all in investment of less than $750.
