Holy canoli dude, the sky is the limit with a $3000 budget if you're going to build yourself. Rendering speed is high? Well, the more cache on the CPU, the better - why not look at something in the high end QX series (The QX9650 is what I have for reference). Also, video card - you could spend all the money on a Quatro, or you could buy a really high end geforce (or multiple geforces) for SLI, or mod a single geforce in to a quatro - they're basically the same anyway, minus the rendering stuff in the quatro drivers that make them excel for it...
