Starting A graphic Design New Media Course Dont Know What Computer To Buy? Help Plz

[goca]

Im Starting A Graphic New Media Course At Uni Next Year Which Is A Course That Includes Conventional Graphic Design And 3D Modeling Aswell,

My Dillema Is i Need To Buy A Computer To Do My Work While On The Course And I Have No Idea What To Buy???

I Was Gonna Buy A Mac (Mac Mini) Because all The art and graphic schools used macs for their work, but i heard that 3d modeling was better on the pc, now i dont know which computer to buy and what would be the best, also keeping in mind i dont have thousands of pounds to blow, as i am a student!

Any Help Will Be apreciated!

Do you want to build or buy. And it's really up to you whether you want to go with mac or windows. It's really a matter of preference and compatibility.

I want to buy, building would take too long!

You want a laptop? Go with an AlienWare laptop. They're fast and have good GPU's. Now for tower, an AlienWare would work, but also look at the Dell XPS Gen 5.
