Without doing the numbers .. consider a lower spec machine .. x 2 .. and get a second license - even rental. You pay such a premium for ~ 20% extra speed .. you could probably pay the same amount for two machines that does 150% more than the expensive beast and put the money towards a second license. You can split jobs easily enough and merge the 3MX's for example .. or just put a bigger job in a queue for longer and process a second job altogether. Let me know what sort of calcs you come up with! If you are keen on the beast .. there is plenty of single threaded operation time - I imagine the 5Ghz will win. The second GPU only adds 30% from memory .. not the 200% you might expect.
