Thanks for the answers! So when it comes to CPUs what do you think is better - more cores or faster cores. I was looking up the different options and it looks like one could build a 24 core machine using a dual-socket AMD configuration (two 12 core AMDs, each at 2.6 GHz) or, alternatively a build that centers around a dual socket configuration with two Intel i7 six cores (so 12 cores total), each at 3.46 GHz.
Then again I saw a post on a different forum where somebody thought that the dual socket setup per se is not really worth it, and that it would be better to go for a single as-fast-as-possible six-core i7 CPU. As I'm sure most people don't have the budget to experiment with different builds ad nauseum I'm wondering what the thoughts are specifically for Nuke, considering its internal architecture. Clearly good and fast HDs and tons of RAM are big factors, but let's assume for a second that we have a sufficient setup there, maybe 24 GB of RAM.
