Im gonn buy 1 titan for now.. too expensive here in Brazil. So, ill buy a TITAN, an intel processor 2011 x79, maybe about 32 g of ram, a small ssd. Im choosing yet. Think im gonna get a maybe an asus FORMULA IV or P79 DELUXE motherboard (most probably: cheaper and goes till 64gb of ram). Now i have a 560m ASUS G74sx notebook. Not bad, but i need something faster.

if You don't need rendering something with CPU /on Vray let's say/ go for Z77 based mobo coupled with 3570/3770, 32gb of RAM is ceiling, but probably it will be cheaper for upgrade to build new rig after a year or two & You'll spend less now =)

3570k ~200€, good Z77mobo ~150-200€, 32GB of RAM ~250€, SSD..HDD../depending on Your needs/ then Titan for 1k$
- preplan Your GPU upgrades while choosing Mobo & PSU & You'll be ready to go =)

well, but in theend it depends on Your specific needs =) so if You need any help, drop a line with bit more info 'bout software You're looking to use =)

cheers

Hi, thanks for your answer glimpse!
Im still choosing, but i already bought a NVIDIA TITAN EVGA's videoboard. Very glad... but theres a plenty to go.. i was thinking about a P9X79 DELUXE, cuz im about to get a 3930K processor. Maybe with 32gb or 64gb (im an after effects user too) and 3DMAX user.. i still use mentalray. So, thats it for now.. as soon as i get that, for sure ill post some tests.. but till now.. just trying to find compatible memory, cheaper hardware, searching, to build that. Thanks.

here is a good list of mobos, though these ain't cheep http://anandtech.com/show/6942/best-x79 ... s-may-2013
