    You want like 2Gb per core, then evenly scale up from that. Def get a MacPro – it will make your life much easier when it comes to upgrading, adding or swapping harddrives. I would sport at least 3 Tb drives, one for render, one for system and one for assets / work files. Get the best card they offer, upgrade options on that are generally pretty limited. Also, depending on how handy you are get the smallest amount of ram possible from Apple, then go to Crucial and fill her up, it's like %50 cheaper...

    • this be my roadmap. thanks!arne

    • yesh, consider waiting a couple months if you can - no thunderbolt currently and it's worth the wait...NONEIS
