    That’s not much money.
    The only mac you can get new for that is an iMac, I’ll wager.
    Or you could get a used Quad for that somewhere, maybe.

    Whatever you can get for that money, get the fastest processor and most RAM. And budget in a copy of Nucleo Pro, if your new computer supports it.
