    What's yar PC/Mac specs

    I just wanna know..
    =P

    I started..so may as well post mine.

    I got a Mac and a PC.


    Mac Pro

    RAM: 32GB DDR3
    HDD: 4x 2TB, one with OS X 10.6.4 and one with 7 Ultimate.
    CPU: Dual Quad-Core 2.93 GHz Intel Xeon
    GFX: 4x NVIDIA GT 120
    MOBO: How the figgles m'I supposed to know..
    OS: Mac OS X 10.6.4 on HDD 1 and Windows 7 Ultimate on HDD 2, HDD's 3 & 4 are unallocated


    New Mac Pro with 12 Cores ordered, specs are as followed!

    2x 2.93 GHz Intel Xeon Westmere 6 Core Processors - 12 CORES!
    32GB DDR3 RAM (8x4GB)
    3x 2TB Drives, 1x 512GB SSD
    Two ATI Radeon HD 5770's 1GB each
    4x Apple Cinema HD Displays 30"




    Windows PC

    RAM: 24GB DDR3
    HDD: 4x 2TB, one with Windows 7 Ultimate and the rest unused (unallocated)
    CPU: Six-Core Intel Core i7 980x Extreme
    GFX: NVIDIA GTX 480 w/DX11
    MOBO: EVGA X58 SLI
    OS: Windows 7 Ultimate on Hard Drive I

    I'd have dual i7 980X but I don't know of any dual-CPU boards that support dual non-server processors (AKA anything but Xeon)



    UPDATE: MAC PRO WITH 12 CORES RELEASED! I JUST ORDERED MINE!

    Why macs suck.
    If you want to upgrade, New computer! It's not like just changing a processor for a PC or Motherboard! You Need a COMPLETELY New computer! Which Will cost over $1500. If you wanna do those changes in a pc probably $500 max

    RAM: 24GB DDR3 2000Mhz CL7
    HDD: 5x 640GB WD CBlue (raid 5), 4x 1TB WD CBlack (raid 1+0), 2x 100GB sf ssd (raid 0 + high iops = win)

    Note: you can't pair 2x 980x, you have to use Xeons for multi CPU (trust me, if you want detailed description why PM me).

    If you want specs from my servers & render farm --> PM

    Hell yea =D

    But it can get complicated if you have RAM over 12GB and over two cores, and in some cases two cores is very frustrating.

    I was planning to not buy a mac and just hack my PC, but all the kernel panics were a living hell

    so I Just said fk it and ordered the 8 core Mac
