I'd do the CPU upgrade. That'll help with both SU and rendering so it's money well spent.
I'd pass on the GPU upgrade. I don't think you'll see any difference at all unless she's also interesting in playing Skyrim on that PC.
That doesn't make any sense, because you can't 'just upgrade' the CPU and not the GPU on a Mac. You do both at the same time.
I think you've misunderstood the original poster (or perhaps I have?). We're not talking about upgrading an existing computer. He's buying a new mac and asking which of the 3 upgrade options he should get. I've never gone through the mac buying process, but I don't get the impression from his question that it's an all or nothing thing in this case.
