Thanx Operaguy for listing your components as this gives me some idea what im gonna build soon, as i havent done anything to my current machine in 6 years.
What i would like to know is Does Poser7 run on a 2 quad processor machine and if so would it use all 8 cores in rendering, if it doesnt will Poser7 Pro use all 8 ???????

and should i start a thread for people to post their system specs so that us that are wanting to upgrade have an idea what works and is good????

to start i have

P4 2.4ghz with 1gb ram
3 Hitachi H/D (280gb,1160gb)
nVidia GeForce FX5900
Epox something motherboard

yes its old but it still works a treat...

Getting old and still making "art" without soiling myself, now that's success.
