I think that would mostly depend on processor speed and memory bandwidth
for snappy presentation to the user.  My preference, if you don't do
texture, would be an Octane.  However, that's very subjective, and based
on more than just texture ability.  I sent a link earlier to some SGI
information on the Futurtech site.  There's more than you need to know
there, and a quick read of the info will help you make an educated
decision about what bests suits your needs.
