marticus Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 why not get one of the new mac books? if you run bootcamp it'll be 100% compatible with both. i think it starts at 1,300 usd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ankiel Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 You could try, oh I don't know, searching the forums for more than 30 seconds and find about 1000 posts on a very similar subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaaseyRacer Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 1500 is a good budget, does that include display or do you have a display. For that budget with out a monitor, I would go with: Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6 Core 2 Quad 9400 NVIDIA 9800GTX+ 8GB OCZ Platinum DDR2 1066 640GB Seagate SATA Hard Drive 2x 1TB Seagate SATA Hard Drives Some ATX Mid Tower Thermaltake 750W Power Supply Pioneer DVR-216 SATA DVD-R Drive ~$1460 + shipping. If you want to cut cost I would go with two 750GB drives. Also if you need cash for a monitor go with a P45 motherboard, and an E8500 Core 2 Duo. If you are running Windows XP 4GB of RAM might be enough. However, if you are doing visual effects 8GB of RAM kicks ass. If you are looking for a monitor the 24inch Samsung 245T is great for high end, or the Samsung 24 inch 2443BWX is great on the low end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaaseyRacer Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Yes all the Core 2 Duo and Core 2 Quad processors are 64bit. Almost everything on the market these days is. And it will run great in XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
