build new rig or buy mac pro ?

I have another question, it appears and 8800GT has an equivalent quadro card, therefore if i patch it to professional mode, would i see any speed increases when rendering, on a mac pro ?

can you even patch them to pro mode on osx ?

Or do i need to stump up for the proper 1.5gb quadro card ?
 
saying a mac pro is good for the money is an utter lie, they are hugely overpriced

The mac pro is an exception I grudgingly admit.

I doubt you could outspec it for 1.5k for the base spec with student discount.

Yep.

On higher education the mac pro is; £1,468.75.

Not just the spec, its how its built too. Wont beat that.
