Looking for random experiences, opinion and advices!
I have a budget right now of $3-4k and I was going to buy the new MacBook retina (~$1,700) + PC gaming rig (~$1,000/$1,500 for the rig + 1080p screen + mouse/keyboard)
I am kind of looking at people playing on RiMac and I wonder if I can just combine the two and buy a max-out RiMac (~$3,500: i7 + m295x + 16Gb ram + SSD 256Gb)
I am planing doing mostly intense ruby coding + maybe a bit of gam dev. under yosemite and multiplayer FPS + total war games under windows.
What do you think make more sense?
PS: Kind of concern that the PC rig might be more powerful that the RiMac while being way cheaper, also kind of concern of the m295x chip inside the RiMac is mobile GPU that seems to have throttling issues...
