new to this! need some advice :)

Hey people!

Im currently at university doing a BSC in 'Multimedia Technology and design'. Its a pretty cool course, little bit too much programming for my liking but its a fun varied course!

Coming up next term is the module ive been waiting for, '3d worlds' - basically abit of modeling and animation in Maya.

Should be really good, and im looking to continue using the software in my own time for fun!

Im looking to buy a new computer at the moment solely for my uni work (i have a laptop aswell, but im looking for a desktop to sit in my room - more for your money with a desktop!)


Whats a decent spec to run maya with well? Maya will be the most resource hungry programme ill be using (others include PS and flash)


Got my eyes on a few (bear in mind im on a pretty small student budget!)

Any help would be greatly appreciated, and i look forward to sharing some of my work user added image
