Hi there.. I ended up with Dell Precision T5500 (Xeon X5690, 3.46 Ghz 12MB Cache, 12GB DDR3@1333Mhz, single Quadro 4000 graphics card, 1.5TB Sata, 21.5" Dell monitor). I guess it's an enhanced T5500 because the specs is better than T7500, though the chasis is T5500. (I wonder why:) Got it for about 4.2K USD from a Dell authorized dealer in here HK.
I've been using if for two weeks now and so far I think it's performing better than my recent T3500 in a way that it's more stable (lesser crash and bug splats) and computes things smoother (seen on progress bar of my common procedures like "flatten," "joint push/pull," "round corners", sandbox features, and others (obviously I'm not a techie as evident with how I rate it:).
By the way, as of this posting, Xeon X5690 ranks only at 5th place among other fast CPUs http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_lookup.php?cpu=Intel+Xeon+X5690+%40+3.47GHz , and the i7-3690X on first in rank is a way lot faster and cheaper, unbelievable
