Hello Everyone,

I've seen the power of Houdini and am currently learning it. I would like to buy a computer workstation in the near future to do VFX. I am thinking of using Houdini with Nuke.

What do you guys recommend would be an ideal VFX workstation for Houdini?

As much ram you can afford,
fastest clock on cpu you can afford and then as many cores as you can afford (its better to have less cores with higher clocks then more cores on slower clock).
SSD storage and some decent GPU.

I would put more money to CPU/RAM then to GPU.
