Existing system:
BFGRNF4U S939 motherboard (Excellent overclocker. 333FSB not a problem)
A64 Winchester 3000+ 1.8Ghz (Max OC of 2.6Ghz, stable as a rock)
2x512MB OCZ EL Plat Rev 2 TCCD 2-2-2-5
Assorted 7200RPM SATA disks
BFG 7800GTX-OC 256MB
I'm looking to make this sucker zip through Adobe Photoshop CS2 and Alias|Wavefront Maya 7. I've got about $800 to do it with. To the best of my knowledge, both of these applications are multithreaded.
My idea:
Opteron 165 (Hoping for at least a 2.6Ghz OC)
2x1GB OCZ 2-3-2-5 DDR to add to my existing 2x512MB sticks
150GB Raptor for OS/scratch disk
Could my money be better spent?
