Im looking at a new machine and would appreciate any suggestions or comments. This machine would primarily be used for Rhino modelling, Mudbox and Octane Render. And of course Photoshop, Illustrator etc.:

Win7 ultimate 64bit
Xeon W3680 3.33
12GB DDR3 SDRAM
2.5" 256GB Solid State Drive
2GB Quadro 4000

Thanks,
Andrew

Hi,

Well, i think you should use two graphics cards. Use a fermi card for your render card and if money is no object then use a quadro for your display/modelling card. Thats what I do. Quadros are great for autodesk and adobe support but Octane just needs a good fast card with lots of Cuda cores and lots of vid ram.
