I'm wanting a fast, smooth running GEOPAK machine for some intense SS3 rendering.

I'm hoping to get a fast GEOPAK machine and was wondering if someone would tell me if this is a good configuration or should I spend more money!

  • It's better than the one I am running right now.  Should be better than good.  Looks like your spec lists a Xeon processor.  Mine has i7 processor. I've sort of lost track of the advantages that the 2 processor families have, so might be worth inquiring a little more about the processor.

    Don;t forget about visualization and rendering either.  If you are planning to do high end rendering, too, then it would be good to also get input from those who do that kind of stuff.

  • yes, the i7 and xeon e5 or e7 is an issue for me.  not able to get into the xeon e7 without another grand on top of that price.

    I am worried the 7000 4gb graphics card will only be adequate.  

    Was just sitting here wondering if I might need to post this somewhere else.

    Haven't done my research and not sure if this topic has been thoroughly discussed.

    Any ideas on places to post?
