Hi, I came across to use the AMD Phenom II x6 CPU and it renders anything smoothly and quicker than a single core CPU system. Now it brought to me if it does any significant differences by using NVIDIA Tesla, or using GPU power workstation card.

Right now I have these installed:

AMD Phenom II x6
5 GB Kingston DDR2 ram
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285
Asus motherboard.

I believe the Tesla cards will only run CUDA.
