I hope to start a studio and one of the requirements (besides money) is using a computer. I wish to start an animation studio featuring 3DS max or Autodesk Maya. Which Processor would be best to fit my studio? I will also be working with Motion Capture and other similar features.

The new Xeons use the same technology as the Core 2 Duos did, and just like in desktops, the Xeons have by far surpassed the Opterons. Just as a question, are you planning to build this system yourself, because if you are, I think I can help you save a fairly decent amount of money, I have experience in selecting parts for this type of system. Don't misunderstand, I am not selling anything, but I think I can give you some good advice. If so, send me an email and I we can talk.

Definitely go with the Opteron. Intel may have caught, and passed AMD by in the desktop world, but they have yet to come close to producing anything that can compete with the Opteron in the server market. Hey, even Dell is offering Opteron's now, that all to tell you something.

A lot of animated movies ... for example ... Over The Hedge ... were created using HP hardware and dual core Opteron processors ... if it's good enough for the big boys .....
