     Ok so long story short, i need a new computer. Any answer asap would be greatly appreciated as i was looking to get a computer in a day or 2. But im in school for computer animation, so i would need to run some memory intensive and graphically intensive programs. I would be a modeler if anyone knows anything bout the field.
