Well, you already sold the AV option, so obviously you aren't planning on
replacing the Mac for video work.  You've mentioned that texturing 
applications isn't too important.  You've never shown an interest in 
volumetrics.  I can't think of a single reason why the O2 would be better
for you.  If you can afford the Octane, make the trade.
 
You can always buy TRAM later.
