Listers,

A client is looking to pick up a couple of the new Mac Pros and they asked = me to help with the best specs for CS6 Raytracer.

I know we touched on this a while back - =A0what is the best, as in fastest= , budget is not an issue, GPU set-up for the Mac + WIN

As I understood it, the NVIDIA Quadro 6000 combo Tesla is pretty much top o= f the heap on WIN... correct?

What gets closest (fastest) on the Mac?

Cheers,
