      Good morning all. I am shopping for a pcbuild, and am unsure what I need.

      I am an archvis draftsman. Currently, I use a renderfarm to render vray / sketchup projects, but would like to render in-house to save $$.

      The renderfarm states that it takes 2 hours of CPU time @60 ghz for one of my typical renderings. I do not know what this means, or how it should enter into my pcbuild equation.

      I understand that Vray 2.0 uses CPU to render. Does that change in 3.0? How should I treat the differences as I consider what to buy?

      My budget is $1,000 if I have to keep outsourcing to the render farm.

      BUT if I an render in-house I will spend $2K.

      Is it possible to build a PC capable of rendering FAST like a renderfarm for 2K? Do any of you have any options as to what I should do/purchase?? I have no idea what I need...

      THANK YOU!!!
