Stumbled across a link to HP for Avid ready systems. The link that came up first was for an HP Z6 G4.
with a Google search, prices seem to vary by link. The first two linking to HP workstation store are just above 2K US & 3K US respectively. Inside the base configuration is lower spec & higher price than the original HP Avid partner link I stumbled across. Once you start configuring to get to the original base spec, the price shoots to over 4K US.

I decided to put together an example clone system using the following (all prices from Newegg).

These are prices that will change by the day but tend to be trending down to regular pricing slowly.

 

Firstly what is your workload example

 

This should apply to any heavy production project that fall into Avid Pro Tools specifications for eal world workloads.

I have custom template for stressing system & DAW performance. The idea of the template is to have a session running in a loop using95 to 085 CPU with occasional spikes to 100%, without the system becoming sluggish, sputtering or audible clicks/digital clipping.

The above example system should be able to handle 192 tracks with 32gb to 64gb of memory. At 16gb I would guess 120 tracks using my template in Pro Tools.

Hope this answers your question.
