Kindly let me know guys. And for the reason i am so against a gaming PC is that i already have a gaming desktop. :) i7-930 ;)

Thanks...waiting to hear from all of you :)
 
just use the i7 930 for your animation work :D and lowest would mean everything from 100 to 1,00,00 ... it is very dependent . so whats your budget in numerical value?
 
i'm looking to buy another system for my room....i7 is in the gaming room :)

any suggestions??

by lowest i mean i can ONLY spend as much required on the GPU...not anything else...

Yeah you can look in to the config mentioned in the link. That, I have purchased few days back only.

For animation, one should look of a good processor, RAM, and then look for GPU.

PSU is as important as these three.

U can have:

-Athlon II X4 630 (VFM)

- Biostar 785 G3

- 2*2GB DDR3 RAM (1333Mhz)

- Corsair VX450

- HD5670 512MB (DX 11 support) will fullfil your need for animation. 1GB and 512MB have same performance, but cost differ by 500-600.

I could not get the HD5670, as it was not there at SMC that day.



Also look for in to the link:
