I have the task of verifying our new guy's PC requirement. His main duties would include 3D rendering of various architectural structures (residential homes/palace) using AutoCAD 2006, 3D Studio Max 2009, and VRay 1.5 SP2. This guy was asking for the following specs: (most important) 1. Intel Core i7 930 2. Asus P6T Motherboard 3. 12 GB RAM 4. NVidia GE Force GTX 285 1GB 5. Windows XP 64-bit I found a similar set (HP Pavilion HPE-170 only OS is Windows 7 Home) and it is quite expensive. I want to know if his requirement is too much and if not, what would be the best hardware/software setup? Thanks a lot! =)
