So, for a dedicated 3D development and render rig that won't be connected to the internet and is not for games, and for a no-turning-back 64 Bit install....

Which flavor do I want?

Home Basic OEM? Retail?     It keep reading that the OEM cannot be installed on a different machine once installed on one. I hope this does not mean there is trouble if you rebuild and have to reinstall on the same machine.

Why would I need anything more than Home Basic? It opens up 8Gig RAM (other flavors open up more, but hey, 8Gig is probably all my MOBO will digest anyway.)

If HomeBasic64 gives me the 3D speed I want, but a different flavor would increase that speed, I love to know that.

Any thoughts?
