As you have probably read here, you have many options varying from complete overkill to barely getting by.

I know AutoDesk has a list of approved graphics cards that will work. I would start there and build around that. The GPU is going to matter more than the processor. Depending on your school's budget I think your best bet is going to be looking for parts that have just been replaced by something newer. i.e. get the Widget 2500 when the 2600 comes out.

Speaking strictly of our products, I would go with the following:

MasterCase 5 Series- Best
MasterCase Pro 3- Better
MasterBox- Good

MasterAir Maker 8- Best
V8- Better
212 Evo- Good

V1000- Best
V750- Better
GM Series- Good

MasterKeys Keyboard Series
Sentinel III or MasterMouse
