as I am going to have a new PC build (at a amateur price) and an poser amateur I was wondering what would come in the first place... Speed of the PC. Memory of the graphics card, Speed of that card, amount of Ram,.... Anyway with my old one (550 mhz and Voodoo3) it does not load figures fast and rendering is a thing for going a night out..even for the simplest figures... am not going for those super pro things as an hobbyist but at 1500 or more or less the same amount in Usd Dollars (only pc without cd burner or monitor I think I could be able to find something)...Says me......for...what it's worth....

Yes to all three. They all compliment each other. A fast processor and a fast video card with lots of memory on the card and in the machine. In this case bigger is better.

@ least 2.4 ghz processor.... 500mb of ram as for video card... really doesnt come into play until u animate... but you need @ least 16mb MINIMUM... if your doing 72 dpi renders @ 800x800 this will render lightnign fast.... but if you wanna do the printable stuff.. 300-400 dpi 8''x10'' this setup with slow a little but itll be far from bombing... save yourself the drama of buyin a handmade cpu.... iv sen alot of people get shto down with this because 1 card or chip doesnt work with everything... and it acts liek a 486 IBM 2 times... if you want the option of picing every aspect of your PC goto Dell.com u start from scratch and ad only the things you want...
