Hey Guys,I'm looking into a computer build focusing around an Intel Xeon E3-1230 V3 cpu: I feel that given my budget and intended use (Cinema 4D, Adobe Suite) this would be the most cost effective cpu. Can someone recommend a build focused around this cpu? Right now my budget is $600 (not including OS, monitor, keyboard and mouse). Also- hypothetically speaking- if my budget was higher, say $800-1000, what would you recommend as well...

Lastly, would it be worth it to spring for a Nvidia quadro K600 card vs. something like a Geforce or Radeon component?
