I read some reviews and tests on web, but didnt get a conclusion... What config is better to buy:

1. Mac Pro 2008 3,1 8 core 3.0mhz 8gb RAM 500gb HD nivida geforce 8800gt - U$1.000

2. Mac Pro 2010 4 cores 2.8mhz 3gb RAM 1tb HD Ati radeon HD 5770 - U$1800
 
If you can find one, a 2009 would be best as it can be upgraded (CPU's and firmware) to a 2010 model. The 2008 model, while a capable machines is impaired by expensive RAM and fewer upgradeable options.
