So.. which is better for maya?

Mac or PC?

Because i heard macs render faster... but PC's can hold more graphical power and larger graphics cards...

(I was pretty excited about the thought of a Mac though, since all i've ever used is PC)

And if its a PC im willing to go and get all the pieces and make one hell of a machine.

If anyone could suggest a list of optimal specifications with all the parts names i need to buy that would be way awesome.

I just want the best optimal setup so Maya doesnt crash or run slow.

Thanks for all the responses so far! I've added them all to my list of "Stuff to get" lol
