You wont get a good mac for 3k

Hell our pc processing machines are 3k each, and they could do with an upgrade.
pc's work fine but you need a LOT of them and you cant run windows if getting into bulk processing.

And that is for encoding.

I could never imagine rendering on a pc though...8 core macs are just too damn good at that.
