    i d go for the cheaper one,as re cpus ,theres only a few per cent difference in speed. look on toms hardware website, radeon review , i cant tell if theres any significant difference between the graphics cards,you,d have to read reviews ,and see benchmarks.you,d need a 64bit os to use over 4gig ram anyway.

    Software is sorted already. But things like USB3 and what not is it worth the extra 50 squid ?

    I thought theres 149euro price difference ,850 vs 999 =149.I,D SAY for rendering speed spend the money on 6gig ram,both cpus are very fast.

    Honestly both of them will be well able for what you need.

    If it is purely which one will be better..

    The more expensive one should be better for your use.
    The graphics card is a good bit more powerful which should speed up rendering.
    And 2000mhz RAM. That should be pretty damn fast.
