well i got to the point that my home computer cant take it any more.
and i am planning to buy a new computer to continue on my path with Houdini.
are any special configure necessary for Houdini? or something that i really need to put attention to it?.

i will add more ram later on, when the price gets lower, i could ask to send me parts to laredo and go pick them up, or ask some one to do it, but after the travel the cost will be the same or more, plus the warrantys issues. that you need to be were you buy it and all that stuff. but yea keyframe i will defently add more RAM since i am planning to do some simulations stuff with houdini, and keep learning

Take Keyframe's word for it…he's not casually suggesting you might want more RAM later - you *need* more just to get started. And simming? That's another completely different ballpark. Just to use Houdini in something approximating production, you'll want 8G(although I'm finding 12G is more comfortable with each passing day). If you want to do any serious simming, 12G is an absolute minimum.
I understand that circumstances and/or money can drive things, but really, seriously, you *need* more than 2G. You'll just get frustrated and you won't be able to get anything done. It's just a reality of the software demands.
Cheers,
J.C.
