Working with maya and zbrush and i need more ram, and more prosessing power.

I have heard i shuld have 16-32gb ram for zBrush.
And
How mutch wuld Q6600 @ 4ghz to a x79 (i7/i5) of an improvement bee?
% wize, and no bull. if someone comes with 200% here i wuld just "lol" ;D

Thnx for all you can tell me.
shame im not so mutch into hardware as in the days i nitro cooled a p4 to 6ghz ;D
to be honest if those programs are as CPU intensive as you make them sound then in a clock per clock comparison I would think the 200% number sounds about right... I was using a Q6600 machine for the longest time and the difference to my 2600k is nothing short of amazing... not to mention I also get much more clock speed out of my 2600k
