I'm not into specs. But it sounds a bit like my MacPro 8core 8gb (updated that to 48gb) on which I do a lot of 3dmodeling and rendering. These things are monsters.

I wish, that would be pretty epic.

Macpro uses freaking 8 xeons, these are 8 jaguar (laptop/mobile) cores.

Haha yeah, around 4300 euro, but that with an Eizo mon and extra ram. It's not even that great for gaming...at least...I never used it to game

Gaming has a different workload than work machines. Very branch heavy code. You want strong integer performance, aggressive out of order execution, and a very very slick branch predictor. None of that really means a whole lot for the performance we need when making assets.

But yeah, No games allowed on my work computer either. Though I didnt spend near 5000 bucks on it. So.... Does it make you coffee while you wait for a complex render? (Do you even wait?) Does it massage your feet while you tweak splines?

Cause if it does I think Im trading in my wife.

Are you serious of course not...the only thing it produces is Apple juice but yeah, it's in its second year and never ever crashed on me. I can photoshop heavy files while rendering in Cinema or Aftereffects. It's not even the fastest renderer but it's reliable.
