You would need a
million times the processing power to match the lighting and effects of Avatar.
Edit: I was bored so rather than my above guess, I calculated up the average power of the Avatar server farms, and checked on the average render time per frame of CGI, and it ends up being right around a million, so it was a pretty good guess.
Edit: Hmmm, I guess that would only be for one frame per second though, times by 30 or 60 for your prefered frame rate, 30-60 million times.
