3d modelling rendering system £3-5k budget?

[justinlaurie]

I would like to build a 3d modelling/rendering system with a budget of around £3000 to £5000? what would be an ideal system?

I was looking at basing the hardware in a HP z620 as my company are wanting me to use this server. nVidia Quadro K5000. Single Xeon E5-2690 8 Core 2.90GHz 20MB cache 1600MHz or would dual Xeon E5-2620 6 Core 2.00GHz 15MB cache 1333MHz be better (I figured 2 x Xeon E5-2620)? 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3-1600 MHz ECC Registered RAM?

Any suggestions.

I think the dual CPUs would be better. I would go with 32 Gb of RAM
