4000USD is a lot of money. That seems like an odd setup.<p>Not having ever wanted to buy a machine for that amount of cash, I&#x27;d expect to do better with multi-socket systems.<p>Anyone care to chime in? I struggled to spend over 1K GBP with my latest machine. (I think &#x27;Extreme Edition&#x27; is basically like buying the S version of a car, mind). i7-5820K, 64GB ram.<p>One thing that does stick out is an odd monitor comparison. There&#x27;s an expensive color repro &quot;low&quot; (in comparison) res monitor for the PC, against the standard iMac retina. Aren&#x27;t there cheaper 4K monitors&#x2F;TV&#x27;s about?
